The show is a time for our children to bring their moms, dads, siblings, grandmas, grandpas and anyone else who is important in their lives to show off their creations. Refreshments will be served. A sign-up sheet will be posted outside each classroom door for parents willing to provide cookies for this occasion. The children take this exhibit very seriously and are quite proud of their masterpieces. Please plan to join us. A Visit from the Dentist In February, all of the children enjoyed a visit from Pearly Whites of Berkeley Heights. They talked about the importance of taking care of our teeth, brushing our teeth (twice a day), and what kinds of foods are not good for our teeth (sticky and sugary). The children came home with a new toothbrush and toothpaste. Spring Enrichment Camp WNS will again be offering Spring Camp for all enrolled children. Spring Enrichment Camp is scheduled for June 4th-8th and June 11th-15th. Each session runs for five mornings (9:00-11:30 a.m.). A separate flyer and registration form with additional information will be sent home at a later date. Enrollment is limited and children may be signed up for either one or both weeks.
