From the Principal’s Office
We would like to express our sincere thanks to all of our families who helped make our “Week of the Young Child” celebration a huge success! Our Playday/Medieval Gala was such a treat. We loved seeing all the children dressed up as their favorite princess, prince, knights and dragons! The Week of the Young Child was also so much fun for the children. We all enjoyed the Wizard of Science show with Miss Terrie & Miss Ashley, all of our science experiment days and our Park & Picnic Days. We ended our week with our traditional St. Jude’s Trike-a-Thon. Thank you for your donations to such a worthy cause. And a big thank you for bringing in all the necessary items for this very special week, but most importantly your support. We truly appreciate all you do and we are looking forward to next year when we once again designate this special week to celebrate children!
We will kick off May with our Mother’s Day Tea Parties, then celebrate our teachers with Teacher Appreciation Week. We will also host an Open House on Tuesday, May 8th during our late afternoon/evening hours. If you have friends who are interested in a tour our school, please let them know. We would be more than happy to tell them about Merryhill – Laguna.
Happy Spring!
Lisa Norris – Principal

Teacher Appreciation Week
Our teachers are an essential part of your child’s life. They are there to comfort, care for, and teach them while you are away from them during the day. During the week of May 7-11th you can show your appreciation to our teachers and staff. Let our teachers know how important they are to you and your child!
Mother’s Day
We all know that being a Mom can often be the most difficult job in the world, yet is by far the most rewarding. To honor all of our very special mothers, each of our classes will be busy preparing something special for each of you.
This year, our Mother’s Day Tea Parties will be held on Friday, May 11th at 3:30 pm. Please arrive early, because parking is limited.
Caterpillars to Butterflies
Caterpillars will soon arrive at Merryhill and the children will learn about the life cycle of a butterfly. As the caterpillars make their cocoons, we will see them emerge as beautiful butterflies.
Only Mother Nature will know the true date of our release. Please check with your child’s teacher for updates!
