Outdoor Work Day

It’s that time of year again! Spring will be springing and our outdoor environment will be in need of the usual Spring work: pulling weeds, spreading fresh mulch, etc. We are planning a work day on our outdoor environment for Saturday May 12th starting at 10:00 am (rain date will be Saturday May 19th). Any family volunteers will be greatly appreciated. We will provide lunch and drinks for those who help. Please bring your own gloves if needed. Please help us to get our outdoor environment a certified Nature Explore classroom!

Reminders:

Since the weather is turning nicer, please remember to bring in a current change of clothes for your child. We will be going outside every day, so chances of getting dirty are more likely than thorough the winter months. Also, please make sure your children are dressed appropriately for the weather.

Things from Home

Parents are asked to keep their children’s personal belonging, such as toys, purses, and jewelry, at home because of the possible breakage and problems with regulating use. They may occasionally bring a CD or book for the teacher to play or read, but please make sure the items are marked with first and last name. Please remember we are not responsible if personal belongings are lost or broken.

Parents as Advertisers

Our best source of advertising has always been by word-of-mouth from current and/or former families. If you know someone that is in need of preschool and/or child care for any child between 15 months and to 10 years, please spread the word. With  your support, we can continue to provide full day/year round preschool and child care for working families and continue to make a difference in the lives of children and families we serve. Thank  you for your continued support.
