Noah's Ark

We're starting off our Bible stories this year with Noah and the Ark.  We'll read the story of how God told Noah to build the ark; play with a Noah's ark felt board; maybe watch a video about Noah; do some coloring sheets; and lots of other stuff.  We'll learn the songs "Jesus Loves Me" and "Who Built the Ark?"  If you'd like to hear a version of "Who Built the Ark?" that's similar to the one we use, you can click on the following link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1E7qs0bAbg&feature=related

W.I.P.P. Welcomes Jenna Watkins

We had our first music classes today with Miss Jenna.  The kids had a blast!  Miss Jenna visits each class for 15-20 minutes each week to share her love of music with our students.  Jenna graduated from Georgia College & State University with a degree in Music Therapy.  In addition to her work at WIPP, she's also working with THA Group Island Hospice and giving private lessons in voice, guitar and piano.

Wednesday, September 11

Thank you for your patience during our first rainy day carpool today.  There's really no quick way to get 100+ small children into their carseats safely while keeping them as dry as possible!  We keep our fingers crossed that rain holds off until 12:15 each day, but that doesn't always work!

Please remember to return all of the forms that were sent home at the beginning of the month.  If you have any questions about any of them, call the office or email and let us know.

Also, we've had an early wave of multiple illnesses hit the preschool including pink eye, stomach bugs, croup, and the normal colds and fevers.  We do our best to keep hands washed and surfaces clean, but germs are shared anyway!  If your child has a cough or is running a fever, please keep him or her home.  There are detailed guidelines in our school handbook regarding health issues to which you can refer.

The school year is off to a wonderful start! 

Thank you for all you do!
