OCTOBER NEWSLETTER Dear Parents/Guardians: Brrrrrr…Fall weather is definitely upon us, which means warm clothes are needed. We are asking that all children have the regular outside clothing (jacket, mitts, toque and warm outside footwear) as well as an extra change of inside clothes. As hopefully all of you have noticed we have made a new parent communication board. (Large blue board in foyer). This board will be used to post important upcoming events so please take the time to read it, as well as the pin up board right inside the doorway. This board will have our monthly snack menu, calendars, show and tell schedule and community information on it. For activity planning purposes, we are asking all parents to inform us if their child will be away on a specific date or will be arriving later than 9:30 A.M. We would like to apologize in advance for our early closure at 4 pm this Friday (Oct 4th). Staff will all be attending a work seminar to further our knowledge and education in the child care field. We thank you for your understanding and support. Reading is a very important part of child learning and development. Scholastics orders are currently available through our center. Any proceeds generated through your orders earns our centre new books!!!! If you have a child on the infant side, we are doing a project that requires a family photo. If you could please bring one in as soon as possible that would be appreciated. Show and tell is a big hit on our 3-5 side. Just a reminder, please only send one toy for your child’s day. (No weapons please) Important days to remember this month: Oct 4 – Early closure Oct 11 – Pajama day Oct 14 – Closed for thanksgiving Oct 31 – Halloween Party!! If you have any questions or concerns please come in and see me or call the office. (250) 793-5437 Ronda Reid Manager
