CAM News July 2013 From the Directors Corner:
This Month’s Birthdays
Greetings:
October News at CAM It Seems summer is now in full swing so we’re bringing out the hose and sprinkler! Thank goodness because it’s gone from warm to hot & humid in the blink of an eye! So please be sure to apply sunscreen to your child before they come in each day, and remember to sign and submit the Topical Application Form. The ceremony for the graduating class of 2013 took place at the Tree Paad on June 20th. Thanks to a lovely power point presentation created by Mr. Phil and Ms. Christina. It brought tears to my eyes. The Nd I mu children worked so hard on their performance and were excited to be able to sing & dance about what they learned over the year. Congrats to the grads. Looking ahead, children will be “travelling” across the country as they learn about all the people, places and things that define this country and make America such a great nation. By celebrating the All American Spirit; from Independence to air and space travel children are sure to have lots of adventures this month at CAM. Warmest regards,
