Week of December 2, 2019



Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  We are so thankful for the amazing opportunity to teach your incredible little ones!  Thank you for sharing them with us here at St Therese School.

We will be hitting the ground running this week with so much to get done before Christmas!  We will be doing lots of practicing of our Christmas Show songs to get ready for our Show on December 13th.  If you hear some beautiful singing and humming at home, please encourage it even if it is about two red apples, five pumpkins or fat turkeys!

Wow, was painting and glittering our 3-D stars so much fun this week!!  Be sure to sneak a peek up at our "classroom sky" next time you are in the Learning Center.  We also made adorable Mangers which are on display in our classroom as well.  And don't forget to check out our houses on display in the hallway... you'll be impressed with the special surprises hidden behind their doors!!

Our Parent/Teacher Conferences will be in January.  More information will be coming home through the folders in the upcoming weeks.

Christmas Show:  Our Show will begin at 8:45am on December 13, 2019 in the All Purpose Room of the Church.  Plan on it taking about an hour or so.  The routine will be very different for this special day.  All children will arrive a little later and right to the Church. They will be dismissed directly to you right after our Show and light refreshments so you can spend the rest of your special day together with with your amazing little Preschool Performer!!   Please do not hesitate to reach out to me with any questions you may have.
