Preschool Weekly Update – Week of 2/10

Prayer to St. Valentine

Dear Saint and glorious martyr, Teach us to love unselfishly and to find great joy in giving. Enable all true lovers to bring out the best in God and in each other. 

Amen.

Dear parents,

I am happy to say that the “battle of the cold virus” has worked its way out of the classroom. Miss Rosie and I look forward to having our full class back on Monday.

This coming week we will have a “Maker Space” class with Miss Kristen, Garden class and Valentine’s Day bag decorating. The class will continue their exploration on Health and Fitness. This week the children ran an obstacle course in O’Brian and tested their gross motor skills! Well done little Spartans!

Your child is welcome to bring Valentine’s Day cards on Friday 2/14. We ask that your child write their name on each card. Please do not send sweets. Thank you.

Have a restful weekend!

Peace, Ms. Grace and Miss Rosie

What Our Families are Saying

"The supportive teachers at SPN played a big role in preparing me for high school and helping me understand what to expect. They encouraged me to ask questions and seek help when needed, which made me more confident in my learning. Thanks to them, I entered freshman year already familiar with many concepts and effective study habits that have helped me stay on top of my work. SPN also taught me valuable life skills that I still use today, helping me succeed academically, build strong friendships, and maintain my overall well-being."
— Tibby Horvath, SPN Class of 2022
"We are very satisfied with the SPN community, something that is important to our family. My children feel safe and comfortable with SPN. Our family feels connected with the SPN community from parents and families to the staff and faculty. My children and we as parents have made healthy and positive relationships with other families from school. We share time outside of school with other families which brings a level of connectedness I don't know if we would have elsewhere"
— SPN Parent
"My children are experiencing community in other ways than just friends and playdates. Faith Families is an example of community, interacting with students from all grade levels, and learning and creating for others outside of SPN. Field trips to Kids Against Hunger or the Alameda Food Bank where they work and see firsthand how their efforts help others less fortunate, for those who are in need of support. Community is not just our SPN ‘bubble,’ and that is what SPN demonstrates and provides– opportunity to explore a bigger community."
