A Note From Our Principal,
We loved celebrating Week of the Young Child and Earth Week with our students and families! During the Week of the Young Child, the students loved painting canvases, and dressing up for Fancy Friday! The canvases have been hung up in each of the classrooms and for those that had two, we used them to update our Restroom Art! Our Fancy Friday lunch had dimmed lighting, flickering LED candles, flowers on the tables and table cloths. It was absolutely delightful and we were thrilled with the positive feedback that we received from the students, the staff and our parents!
During Earth Week, the students were able to paint their planter boxes and planter wheels, they planted seeds and learned about how to plant and create a vegetable garden on our Preschool side. We began planting what’s called The 3 Sisters Gardening Project. I would like to extend a huge thank you to all of our families that donated both their time and materials to make our Earth Week a success!
We found that we needed a bit more organization time for our Sensory and Music Walls, so we will extend this project into next week, ensuring it gets all of the attention it deserves by having a week to itself.
We invite everyone in to check out the new additions to our backyard and can’t wait to see what comes up out of the ground over the next few weeks!
May is set to be another busy month so be sure to read through our newsletter so you don’t miss out on any happenings!
Sincerely,
Jill McSpadden
