Our school year has started off very well! We enjoyed talking about families last week. This week, we are learning about our five senses and doing activities to learn about red, orange, circles, and rectangles. The children will also be able to look for buried treasures at the sand table. We will learn about Abraham’s faith in God as he goes to a new land.
Our first monthly scholastic orders are due this Friday, September 21. Check out the flyers sent home or have a look at the website. It is very easy to place an order online and the book selection and prices are good. The books will be mailed to the school around the end of the month, and we will send the orders home with the children. The more books our families order for their own children’s libraries at home will give us more points to order great books for our preschool library!
Thank you to the families who provided snacks last week! All of the children enjoyed them. The families who are scheduled to provide a snack this week are: Farley on Wednesday (9/19), Carpenter on Thursday (9/20), and Farren on Friday (9/21). There are still 9 students in each class. If you need any suggestions on what to bring, please look at the Parent Information handout from orientation. Thank you so much for your help!
Mark your Calendars:
9/21 – Scholastic book orders due for September
10/11 – Possible date for a field trip to the pumpkin patch, stay tuned for more information
Have a great week!

We had a really good first week of school! The children are adapting quickly to the schedule, and we are learning and having fun. This week, we are going to get to know one another more and talk about our families. We will be learning about sea animals in the coral reef as well. Our education focus for this month and part of October will be on learning colors and shapes. This week we will learn about blue, yellow, squares, and triangles. Our Bible lesson will be about Noah and the ark.
It was a pleasure meeting many of you at Orientation last Friday! I hope it was informative. If you were unable to attend, you will still be able to receive the “goody bag” with parent information and prizes for your preschooler.
Welcome to Preschool!
Can you believe we are already in the last month of summer! We continue to explore our world this week looking at stories about people and places in Africa. The last 2 weeks of the program we will be talking about Australia and the world’s oceans. On Thursday, August 16, to finish up the fun things we have planned, we will celebrate with a Hawaiian-themed party where we will play games and eat treats.
I trust everyone is having a good summer so far. I know I had a fun on vacation these past 2 weeks with my kids. Enjoy every moment with your children. They are truly a blessing! I wanted to thank Ms. Hannah, Ms. Tara, and Ms. Lily for covering for me while I was away.
