Week of June 16th

This time of year is always hard on us.  We have loved watching your children grow this year and we will miss all of them so please stop by and visit us next year!  We will be sending home Star Class books, portfolios, place mats, Job Stars, and art work toward the beginning of the week.  It will be hard to see the classroom becoming more and more bare but it also helps offer the children closure so we hope to see everyone this week.  Also remember NOT to bring in helmets, we will not have the bikes out this week.

Fathers Day Gift
Fathers Day gifts will be coming home this week.  We are sorry they weren't sent home for you to open on Fathers day, Teacher Jo had some technical difficulty with uploading things off her phone.

Last Day of Class
We have reached our last week in class.  We will be in class until June 18th, then meeting at Felida Park on June 19th from 10-1 for an all school picnic.  Come hang out at the park with Teacher Jaylene even if that is not your normal school day!  Teacher Jo is hoping to make an appearance at the beginning and end of the picnic, but has her son's 5th grade graduation to attend from 11-12 that day.

Summer Camp
Summer is coming, and we have two weeks of fun and activities planned for summer camp this year!
July 14-18 Dinosaurs OR Disney
July 21-25 Pirates and Princesses OR Lego

Summer camp runs from 9:00-12:00. A keepsake, fun snacks, and enjoyable activities are included in your tuition - $95.00 per child, or $175.00 for two siblings per week. There is is non-refundable materials fee of $25.00 per week per child, due at the time of registration that will be applied to your first week’s tuition.  Check in at the office if you are interested in signing up!

2014-2015
If you know of anyone that is looking for a preschool next year, we still have openings in some of our morning classes and afternoon classes. So please refer your friends!

Lost and Found
There are a lot of items in our lost and found.  If you are missing any jackets, sweaters, or misc items please check the Lost and Found in the office.

This week
This week we are going to be cleaning up our classroom for the summer.  We will be taking the children on small tours to their classes they are signed up for next year.  We will be exploring with our senses as we play with shaving cream and play-doh, as well as have water and soap out to help clean our toys.  We will also be building with Legos.   Each day sections of the class will be closing but we still plan on having fun!  If the weather cooperates we will be watching pop bottle rockets outside.  We will also be walking across the street on Wednesday to enjoy the park by VSAA.
