It’s official Summer is over. But, the fun is just beginning at St. Andrew Preschool.
The cases from Scholastic have arrived and are waiting to be unpacked in the “Big Room.” It is so much fun to see all the new titles and old favorites. There are multiple opportunities for you to help with the Book Fair. Monday morning we will be setting up the fair. If you can assist for just 15 minutes after you drop your children off it would be a big help. No experience necessary. Then, if you are interested in helping as a cashier, we have openings at both drop off and pick-up times as well as Back to School Night. Running the register is super easy and you get to chat with great folks. This promises to be a very successful fair that will help us stock our classrooms with quality books.
Our first Parent Group of the year will be at 9:15am on Tuesday, September 24th, in the atrium. This is an opportunity to hear about what events are coming up in October and to look at volunteer opportunities. Anyone is welcome to attend. If you are not able, minutes will be available.
Back to School Night is Tuesday from 6:00pm – 7:00pm. This is an opportunity to visit your child’s classroom and see what they have been up to. There will also be a showcase of special events and offerings that we have throughout the year. The Book Fair will be open for you convenience as well.
Suffolk Librarians will be visiting us on Wednesday. These talented ladies have a knack for keeping our students engaged in the stories they choose.
Looking Ahead….
