Happy Friday Preschool Families!
I hope this finds you all doing very well and staying healthy! Unfortunately this week was a very bad health week for my dear husband and so I was pulling double duty with mommy AND daddy responsiblities. As a result, the blog update went by the wayside. My apologies!
We started a Dental Theme this week as most of you saw with the brushing charts coming home. I hope this encourages your precious little one brush twice a day. If they bring the chart back next week Wednesday, I will give them a little treat...and it is NOT candy;) Wouldn't that defeat my march against those nasty little sugar bugs!
We started our week of Lent with Ash Wednesday. I have been focusing on the meaning of Lent with the children. Outside the classroom is our Lenten Word Wall that shows the concepts we talk about that goes along with this blessed and somber season.
GVSA Field Trip:
What a GREAT time we had last Friday at the Granville Studio of Visual Arts! The children did such a stupendous time and did such a wonderful job with their art projects. And everyone was on their best behavior...great job everyone! I truly hope the art piece your sweet little one created are ones that you cherish for a very long time. I am working on learning how to download pics onto our blog. I am shooting for next week to have them some pictures posted.
PRESCHOOL DIRECTORY:
If you did not get a preschool directory, please let Mrs. Burd or Mrs. Bloom know as soon as possible. We have a large quantity left and have a feeling one class did not get them. Thanks!
What's up for the Week:
**We will continue our Dental Health theme for next week. Keep on encouraging your child to practice regular brushing. We will continue to talk about how we can keep our teeth happy and healthy.
**Our letter of the week is: R
** We will have a dental hygentist come in next week. This community helper will talk to the children about her job and how we can take care of our teeth.
** We will focus on the meaning of Lent. In POLAR BEARS we will focus on the words: sins and fast. In PENGUINS and SEALS, we will focus in on the meaning of Lent.
ST. FRANCIS PRESCHOOL HAS A FACEBOOK PAGE!
We just got a facebook page on Thursday! I still have A LOT of work to do on it. If you know of someone looking for a quality Christian preschool, let them know that we have a Facebook page. At this point no one can post, but I will be posting pictures and events on the page. I am not exactly tech savy so have patience with me;)
ONLY A FEW OPENINGS LEFT IN SEALS for 2012-2013!
We still a few openings in our Seals 3 year old class for the upcoming 2012-2013 school year. If you know of someone who is looking for a 3 year old class, please let them know that we a few spaces left!
Concluding Thoughts:
Thanks to all the parents that chaperoned the GVSA trip on Friday. We truly appreciate your help and support.
We hope that this Lenten season brings you closer to Christ. God bless you and your families!
Mrs. Burd and Mrs. Bloom
