Hello, Summer!
By Gregory K.
Goodbye, classroom!
Goodbye, Teach!
You can find me at the beach...
Or in the park or at the pool
Or any place that isn’t school.
Goodbye, quizzes!
Bye, reports!
Hello days packed full of sports
And days when I’m just lazybones
While eating melty ice cream cones.
Goodbye, homework -Lunchroom, too.
There’s so, so much I wanna do.
I know the school year flew on past…
But please, please summer -- last and last.
Summer Sun
by Robert Louis Stevenson
Great is the sun, and wide he goes
Through empty heaven with repose;
And in the blue and glowing days
More thick than rain he showers his rays.
Though closer still the blinds we pull
To keep the shady parlour cool,
Yet he will find a chink or two
To slip his golden fingers through.
The dusty attic spider-clad
He, through the keyhole, maketh glad;
And through the broken edge of tiles
Into the laddered hay-loft smiles.
Meantime his golden face around
He bares to all the garden ground,
And sheds a warm and glittering look
Among the ivy's inmost nook.
Above the hills, along the blue,
Round the bright air with footing true,
To please the child, to paint the rose,
The gardener of the World, he goes.
Tips to help you stay safe and healthy and
enjoy summer fun!
We all like to dive into summer to relax, unwind, and have fun. Warm weather brings more opportunity to
enjoy the outdoors. Here are some ways to stay safe while indoors and outdoors.
Master water safety
Swimming and other water activities are excellent ways to get the physical activity and health benefits
needed for a healthy life. Get the most from these activities while helping everyone stay safe and healthy.
Protect yourself in the water where you swim and play.
Help prevent recreational water illnesses.
Get H2O Smart about water safety.
Stay safe while boating.
Wear life jackets and prevent drowning.
Beat the heat
Watch out for the heat. The best defense is prevention. Those at greatest risk of heatrelated illness include infants and children up to 4 years of age.
Prevent heat-related illness.
Protect yourself from harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun. Use a sun protection
factor (SPF) cream of 15 or more. Cover up with a hat and T-shirt an spend time in the
shade between 11am and 3pm.
Be safe at home, work, and play
Most child injuries can be prevented. Injuries are in children aged 19 and younger.
Play it safe in the playground.
Learn what to do if a concussion occurs. A concussion is a type of traumatic brain
injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head that can change the way your
brain normally works.
Stay smart around the house by following tips on fire prevention, microwave use,
and living with pets.
