  • McAvinnue's "Paw"tastic Field Day

    Field Day Postponed 2025

    As you know, McAvinnue's "Paw"tastic Field Day needed to be postponed due to the significant rainfall on Friday morning impacting the overall safety of the fields at Father Maguire Park.

    The new date of this AMAZING event is Monday, June 9th! All of the other scheduling details will remain the same. The weather on Monday looks to be much improved with temperatures in the upper 60's with some cloud cover to keep the heat at bay!

    This event will combine super awesome outside field events with inside classroom fun for all of our students. Families will be able to come out to Father Maguire Park and cheer on their child during the outside field event portion of the school day only.

    Each grade level will have a specific time that they will be outside enjoying some sunshine and fun with some crazy activities! Also, our students will have a cookout at the school, and end the day with a very special "Teacher Challenge" All School Meeting!

    Here is the following grade level schedule for the field event portion of McAvinnue's "Paw"tastic Field Day:

    • Kindergarten - 9:30 AM - 11:00 AM
    • Grades 1 & 2 - 11:05 AM - 12:30 PM
    • Grades 3 & 4 - 12:35 PM - 2:00 PM

     

    Families are allowed to attend the field event portion of the event. This will occur across the street from McAvinnue at Father Maguire Park. After the field event portion has been completed for each grade level, students will head back to McAvinnue to continue to have a blast with some indoor activities including a special lunch on our rooftop courtyard.

    Families ARE NOT permitted to enter the school during the indoor portion of McAvinnue's "Paw"tastic Field Day.

    Students should arrive at school with a hat, water bottle, and sunblock already applied to exposed areas. School faculty will NOT be applying sunblock on students. This will take up too much time which will impact how this day will move along.

    Reach out directly to the school if you have any questions! We are looking forward to hosting another tremendous day for our students, faculty, and families!
