Preschool Weekly Update – Week of 1/13

“Heavenly Father, we lift up those who are currently in harm’s way, asking for your divine protection and guidance. Surround them with your loving embrace, shield them from danger, and grant them strength and courage to face whatever challenges they may encounter. May your angels watch over them, and lead them to safety. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”.

Dear Preschool Families,

This morning, during prayer we had a quiet moment for those who have been impacted by the horrific firestorms in Southern California. We thanked all the men and women who are risking their lives to bring an end to the fires.

Our class had an earthquake drill this morning. We did our “duck and cover” drill and then watched a Mystery Science video where Doug explained why the earth randomly moves. Your child’s play this weekend may have pretend “earthquake” drills in it and this is normal.

We completed the first week of “Safari on the Go”. We learned about the different tools you may need for a safari trip and animal habitat conservation. This coming week we will be exploring different animals and their habitats.

On Wednesday, January 15th is “Come and Play with TK & K”. Please see the school newsletter for registration. This is a great opportunity for parents and children to see the classroom and meet the teachers.

REMINDER: Friday, January 17th is a staff workday and there is no school for the children. Also, Monday, January 20th is a school holiday.

Have a restful weekend.

Peace, Ms. Grace and Miss Rosie
