It’s the most wonderful time of the year! What I love most about the holiday season is the opportunity to teach the children that each individual is special and unique in his/her own ways. This month, our classes will explore various holidays celebrated around the world and the different traditions maintained by each culture. We are also so excited to partner with our neighbor, the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), for a school-wide service project to help young children who are in treatment for life-threatening illnesses. What can be better than the gift of giving and kids helping kids?!
Click here to download a printable copy of this month’s Lunch & Events Calendars. Hard copies are also available at the front desk. Please check the monitor in the front lobby for a heads up when a spirit day is approaching. Don’t forget that up-to-date information is also available via our school website at any time.
Here’s a quick look at the many things to come this month:
PAJAMA DAY FOR CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL OF PENNSYLVANIA
Friday, December 8th
We will be partnering with the Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania (CHOP) for a special pajama day celebration! Wear your favorite pajamas or sleepwear to show off to your friends and teachers. We will collect monetary donations in the front lobby, 100% of which will go to support care, cures, and hope for children who are being treated at CHOP.
