Weekly Director's Update
The kids had a great time this week wearing their pajamas to school and having a pizza party. They all looked so cute!! We have wrapped up the month of February and are ready to “dig” into March. We have some fun things planned for the month that help up prepare for the arrival of spring and Easter. The children will be celebrating God’s gift of plants, rain and rainbows, sunshine, insects and everything to do with spring. The color for the month is yellow and the shape is diamond. We will be working with the letters r,s and t. Our monthly bible verse is “Jesus is not here. He has risen!” Luke 24:6 Chapel time for the month of March is about the resurrection and preparing for Easter.
The kids did a great job today with the fire drill. We rescheduled it from Wednesday due to our state licensing representative here Wednesday morning. We will have our next fire drill on Wed. March 24th.
We had a wedding in our Pre K rooms (Red, Sky Blue & Purple) today. Q & U were married today and the classes attended the ceremony and reception. It was ADORABLE!! Thanks to Kent Potter (Angie’s husband, Luke’s Dad) for “unofficially” officiating and Wendy Crooks for the yummy wedding cake. Ask your child about Mr. & Ms. QU!! We will post pictures soon to the blog. www.suncreekkids.blogspot.com

Weekly Director's Update
Good Afternoon! What a busy week we have had! Looking forward to a long weekend - Remember that we do not have school on Monday in observance of Martin Luther King's Birthday.
Update of Faith the Cow and Heifer International - SCDC raised $300. With the recent earthquake in Haiti and need for aide, Heifer has issued an emergency appeal for funds to help families recover from the destruction. As a school, we decided to donate the entire $300 to this effort. We feel that this money will go to a great cause for people who are suffering greatly. Thank you for all of your donations.
Next week in Centers, the children will have a cooking/food activity on Tuesday and Wednesday. The activity is Winter Snowballs. Please see the recipe below if you would like to try it at home.
1 box white cake mix (baked as directed)
1 can vanilla frosting
Powdered Sugar
Clear Wilton Sprinkles
Pam Cooking Spray
Bake the cake according to the box and let cool. Crumble the cake into a bowl and empty 1/2 of the can of frosting into the bowl. Mix together and chill for 2 hours. Lightly spray hand with cooking spray and roll a spoonful of dough into a ball in your hands. Mix powdered sugar and sprinkles. Roll the ball into the sprinkle mixture and enjoy!
Next Thursday, January 21st - Fire Drill
**Registration for Next Year**
Forms will be coming home next week in your child's folder. You will need to fill out the forms and hand in the day of registration, beginning Monday, January 25th. The only exception is the green Health form that should be turned in by the first day of school in August. This health form needs a doctor's signature and a shot record attached. The registration fee is due at the time of registration. The supply fee is due by April 1st. Please review all of the forms and let me know if you have any questions. Registration will take place from Monday, January 25th through Thursday, January 28th from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. in the Round Room.
