Inauguration Day

Outer Space Adventures are coming to TP, P1, TK1 and TK2.

On Monday, February 2nd, we will be hosting a special program for our Preschools and TK1 and TK2 classrooms called Outer Space Adventures. Children become astronauts, artists, and asteroids! They fly in a "spaceship" to the "moon", do arts and crafts, and make craters- all inside and around several tents.

This will kick off a curriculum unit on Space and Space Transportation. We are looking forward to it.

Dear Parents,

This is our first School to Family newsletter via email for the new year. Throughout the school year, we will send our monthly School to Family newsletter to share our curriculum news and announcements of special events. We would love to hear from you regarding our newest communication tool!

Thanks,

Gail Arsenault

Director
