September...

September is here and it's time to say good by to all our summer campers and welcome our new and returning friends. I certainly hope everyone had a fun and relaxing summer. September is always such a fun time as the children make new friends and get to know the teachers in thier classrooms. During early September we will once again offer Fun Stuff Coupon Books for sale at the school. Many of our families loved using them and giving them as gifts, so they are back by popular demand. Later in the month the children will be asked to show their sweetest smiles as fall photograhs are taken in time for Holiday distribution. Information will follow shortly, so be on the look out! Have a wonderful month and get ready for a great year!!

Wonderful Whales

August was a fun month of learning about All About Me with Littler Critter, Transportation, the Circus and Farewell Friends. They had a great summer everyone liked eating the special treats and going on the moon bounces, pony rides and the Trackless Train. The Toddlers enjoyed learning new words in Spanish and practicing their self help skills. Our themes for this month are; I am Special, My Favorite Things, Family Fun and the Human Body. The Toddlers are very excited to learn about these themes. For the Health and Safety of our room please make sure everything is labeled with your child's first and last name. Remember to write down your child's lunch on the lunch sheet provided by the baskets. Also please make sure your child has two sets of clothing at all times in their cubbie.

It has been a great summer, we are sad to see it end. We really enjoyed all the special visitors that came to our school. We loved the Music shows, we were all dancing and having a good time. We also liked the Moon Bounce and the pony rides, it was awesome! Now, it is time for Back to School and meeting our new friends that will be joining us in September! It is sure to be a great year full of fun and exciting learning experiences. We will be learning about ourselves and our friends to kick off the school year. Just some reminders to our families, please make sure all of your child's belongings are labeled with your child's first and last name.

Fantastic Fish

Welcome to a new school year! We've had a fun summer filled with lots of exciting activities! We had a lot of visitors such as, the Moon Bounce, Water slides, Sprinkler Days, ice cream, music and dancing, petting zoo and pony rides. The Lizard Guy brought a gecko, a tortoise, a bullfrog and albino python to visit us. We also had the 4-H club come a visit. We enjoyed reading books by many wonderful authors. We learned about ourselves and enjoyed crafts and music. In the Get Set class, we will spend September learning about ourselves and each other. We will learn how each of us are special. We will talk about our favorite things. It is sure to be an exciting year filled with wonderful adventures!

Super Seals

August was so hot, but we kept it cool indoors with many fun-filled activities and special visitors. The children had the greatest time during the Music Fun Show and everyone looked so cute with their faces painted like clowns. The fun did not stop inside though. We had so many opportunities to cool off in the sprinkler and take a slippery ride down an awesome water slide. September is soon approaching and we hope that everyone is excited to learn and experience new things. It will be a fun school year! Happy Birthday to Trent, Anna!

Lovely Lobsters

Our campers had a fabulous time in August creating lots of fun projects, enjoying all the fun and exciting water activities and we were entertained by some wonderful guests. The summer has now ended and we are now getting ready for another exciting year. In September the Lovely Lobsters will have an opportunity to learn about themselves, their family and friends. We will discuss how how special we are and all of our favorite things. We will experiment with sand, shaving cream and food coloring. This month we will be enjoying measuring themselves and exam their hands with magnifying glasses. We are looking forward to a fun and great month with the Lovely Lobsters!

Marvelous Manatee

Wow, we can hardly believe that summer camp is over. We have had so much fun this summer. We loved all our trips, such as, the Monmonth Museum where we explored the underwater life. We also had fun bowling with all our friends. Let's not forget sprinkler days which are always a blast, but all good things have to come to an end. September is here and that's when we say good bye to our friends as they move on to different classes and schools. We will miss them very much. It is also time to meet new friends that will join the Manatees class. We are looking forward to meeting all our new friends and having a great time this school year. We have a lot of great things planned and can't wait to get started! Just some reminders: Please make sure all of your child's belongings that come into the classroom.

Thank You
