Weekly Director

Good morning! I can’t believe today is the first day of October already!! It was wonderful to see so many dads come this week
in the two year old rooms for Doughnuts with Dads and those parents that joined us for family chapel. We welcome you to join
us the last week of the month for family chapel! The month of October is full of fun activities for the children. We will be talking
about community helpers/fire safety and of course fall. The bible story the children will be learning about this month is the
story of Ruth and the bible verse is “When I am afraid, I will trust in you.”Psalms 56:3. The shape for the month is circle and the
color is orange and black. Look for special guests throughout the next few weeks for our study on community helpers!

Upcoming events:

Hearing & Vision Screening for all of our students in Red, Sky Blue and Purple Rooms on Wed. Oct. 7th & Thurs. Oct. 8th
(next week) - Each four & five year old needs to have this done unless you already have had it done through your doctor. You
will need to bring the copy of test results from your doctor for our records if not you need to plan to have it done here. Cost is
$8.00/test - $16.00 for both hearing & vision. Any other child at SCDC may do the screening at the parents choosing but is
