November 2020 Newsletter

Our first month of preschool has gone quite well with some adjustments along the way. This month we welcome Dallas to our Monday class and Liam to our Wednesday and Friday class.

It has been good to get outside every day except one in October.  Please be sure to send along suitable clothes for your child to wear outdoors and label everything even if it is just your child’s initials.

We had our annual playground inspection done recently and some work is required – we are not sure if that will happen this fall or in the spring.  The playground might be unavailable for a day or two during that time.

You may have heard in the news recently that there was an outbreak of Covid-19 in a licensed home child care in Oxford County.   That is why it is very important to follow the Board of Health recommendation that children DO NOT participate in more than one group for child care.  Children who are being cared for in a home child care or other daycare are not allowed to attend preschool.

BIRTHDAYSDallas turns 3 on Nov. 16!            Emily turns 3 on Nov. 25!

Remember to check your child’s backpack when they get home from preschool.  That is where you will find newsletters, and crafts that your child created at preschool.

Also remember to send a water bottle/cup with your child’s name on it.

Thank you to everyone who logged on to our Annual General Meeting.  We are thankful to Jennifer Baan for her years of service to the board.   We also say good bye and thank you to former members Ashlea Strickler and Wilma Molinaro.   We welcome Joanne Dreise, Jenna Smith and Suzie Steen as new Board members.

Lastly, I want to thank parents for being diligent in keeping their children home when they have symptoms of any kind.   I know it is disappointing for the children and the parents when they have to miss preschool but we want to do our best to keep our families, students and staff as healthy as possible.

June 2020 Newsletter

This is certainly a unique way to the end the school year!   We are disappointed to have missed these past months with your children.  The springtime is always a favourite time of year as we spend more time outside in our beautiful playground.

I have good news on our photo proofs from March.   The lab has been opened and the proofs will be delivered to me for distribution.   Any orders will need to be done online between the parents and the photography company.We are sad to say that Mrs. DeBoer is stepping down from her role as a teacher at our preschool.   She will still come occasionally as supply staff.   She really feels the need to stay home and help her husband on their farm.   We are thankful for all that she contributed to our program over the past few years.

Registrations for the fall are ongoing – we still have room!

April 2020 Newsletter

Due to the COVID-19 virus, we will not be able to have preschool classes during the month of April. We are all missing our mornings together but we also need to obey the government mandate to stay closed until the pandemic recedes.

At this point, there is a possibility that school and preschool may resume on May 4.  We will stay tuned to what the government says in a few weeks.   We will keep you informed.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!Reid turns 4 on April 15!Callia turns 4 on April 19!Daxton turns 4 on April 22!

We are disappointed that we can’t share Easter with the children.  

We trust that God has the whole world in His hands.    We are feeling overwhelmed at times but God is not overwhelmed.  He is working out His purposes.  We pray that our families are learning to slow down and appreciate the extra time with their children. 

 What will our children remember about this time in history? Will they remember that the adults in their homes were stressed and anxious and difficult to be around?  Or will they remember this time as a time when parents did special projects at home with them, read more stories together, looked back through photos, and practiced counting and letter recognition?  

We pray that you will have a safe and blessed Easter.  Psalm 46 verse 1 says “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. “
