If your child is bringing valentine cards to school please do so
between now and February 7. During the week of Feb 10-13, we will use them
to support fun and learning in the classroom in the following ways: at the
scissor practice table, the art table, the dramatic play center, at the
cognitive table for sorting, matching, classifying and counting. Rather than
sending cards home on Valentine’s Day, hands-on activities will allow the
children to truly enjoy the fun characters on the cards all week! Class
lists with children’s names will not be distributed.
PLEASE
DO NOT SEND FOOD (SUCKERS, TREATS) OR SMALL CHOKING-SIZE ITEMS TO SCHOOL AS
GIFTS TO YOUR CHILD’S CLASSMATES.
A letter will be sent
home with more information about Hop for Heart, our version of a preschool
friendly valentine experience.
Grandparent’s Tea
Your child will soon be bringing home an invitation for Grandparent’s Tea
scheduled for April 1/2. We would like to invite grandparents to join us for
refreshments in the church gym at nursery school. The children will prepare
a small musical presentation and a unique keepsake for this event.
Grandparents deserve to be celebrated!
