October Newsletter

A Note from Our Principal 

As October begins, I’d like to take a moment to appreciate the season’s transition and the exciting opportunities it brings for our students. Autumn provides an ideal setting for learning, with so many changes occurring outdoors and the chance to incorporate new, natural elements into our artwork and learning centers. This month, we have a range of exciting events lined up such as our costume parade and classroom parties. As always, thank you for entrusting us with your child’s education. We’re eager for a season of growth, discovery, and fun.

Sincerely,

Sheila Noakes

Jumpstart’s Read for the Record

We are excited to again participate in Jumpstart’s Read for the Record – the world’s largest shared reading experience that celebrates and supports children’s early language and social-emotional development. Students will participate in activities throughout the week of October 21 inspired by the book, Piper Chen Sings, by Phillipa Soo and Maris Pasquale Doran. It is an inspiring story celebrating self-expression, family bonds, and conquering doubts. Keep an eye out for more details in Links to Home!

Family Referral Bonus & Open House

Do you know a colleague who has recently had a baby, a friend in need of care who just relocated to the area, or a family member who is seeking a new preschool for their child? Invite them to our Open House Week events on October 22, 24, and 26. When you refer a friend and they enroll, you’re eligible for a free week of tuition. Ask us for details!

The days will soon be getting crisp! Please supply an extra set of weather-appropriate clothes for your child and a jacket for chilly days.
