This week starts out with a visit from the Suffolk Public Librarians. This is always a treat!
Tuesday, we will gather in the sanctuary for Chapel time. Please feel free to join us around 9:15am. Children will be learning the story of the Ten Commandments.
Wednesday fellowship dinners begin at 5:45pm. This is a wonderful opportunity for the whole family to come out for a meal and a variety of activities. Look for the Kirk Night flyers around the atrium. I will be teaching a class on the Fruits of the Spirit for 1st – 5th grade. I’m really looking forward to being back in the classroom! Which, by the way will be in the New Education Building!!
PEP classes begin this week. Science for Preschoolers has been cancelled. But, Mrs. Hendrickson and Mrs. Hare are bringing there combined talents to Kids in the Kitchen!! Sports 101 is very popular! Ms. Angie will be showing the kids a variety of sports as she meets with her “team” for the next 10 weeks.
Pantry Parent Shopping Lists are available on the website. Now they are done by the month. So, January Pantry Parents can check them out well in advance.
Lesson Plans will no longer be posted on the website. Getting them up on the site in a timely manner was a real challenge. So, look for an email from your teacher or a paper copy coming home each week. Enrollment information is now up on the website.
