Hello families, two quick updates:
Library books went home in backpacks today, please read these book together with your child and return them to school by Thursday.
Secondly, we have been having a bit of a problem in the bathroom these past two weeks. Many children are still struggling to use the bathroom by themselves during the school day. Please continue to work on this skill at home. For example; washing/drying hands, taking clothing on and off, and cleaning themselves.
Thank you so much for your help, and have a great evening!

Hello Families!
The children made it through the first day of school with flying colors! We had a few tears in the morning, but everyone settled down to eat breakfast and listen to morning messages. Today the children began learning about our Daily Routine, here are some pictures from the children interacting in the classroom. Please enjoy and we can’t wait to see everyone tomorrow morning!
Have a great afternoon!

Hello families!
As summer vacation approaches we have been talking alot in school about ideas for playing outside and how to stay safe while doing so.
This week we focused on bike safety and tomorrow the children will be practicing the new skills they learned at our Trike-a-thon! We will be outside riding tricycles for about 30 minutes and it is supposed to be sunny and hot; please dress your child for the weather in comfortable play clothes and gym shoes.
Enjoy the sunshine and have a great afternoon!
