One more day and we are officially into fall! Let’s hope our weather starts to cool off now – I know we are all ready for that!! The kids had a great week full of fun and learning. I love to see the smiles on their faces and the excitement they show when they are here. It is such a blessing and SCDC is so honored to be a part of your child’s early childhood education.
Just a few reminders for next week:
This Friday (7am-8pm) & Saturday (7am-3pm) is the Suncreek UMC garage sale
Family Chapel is next week at your child’s scheduled chapel time – I invite you to come and see what we do in chapel! (We do this the last week of the month).
First fire drill – Wednesday at 10am
Two Girls Who Make Crosses & Leslie Yeary will have booths set up on Wednesday & Thursday. Two Girls will be here on Wed. from 9-noon & Thurs. 11-2.

We still need volunteers to help with our 3rd annual bike-a-thon. If interested please contact Ashley Southard at ashsouthard@sbcglobal.net an informational meeting will be held tomorrow (Thursday) at 9:15 in room 128.

This is the fall addition and it has topics that will vary from health, nutrition, guidance, discipline as well as a child-friendly recipe for you to do with your child. I hope you find this to be a useful tool.
Have a great day!

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
