The Westminster Nursery School Times
Spring seems the ideal time for science to really “blossom”. Imagine the wonder of being able to actually see a caterpillar eat, grow fat, weave a cocoon and then hatch into a beautiful butterfly! Planting seeds and watching them grow! Digging for worms, centipedes and millipedes. We are so busy with science. Spring Camp We still have room in Spring Camp. Please sign up by May 7th so we can prepare for everyone. Notices will be distributed indicating which group your child is in soon. Community Helper Field Trips for 4s Our “community helper” field trips are gearing up. Stay tuned for more information. Footwear Now that spring is here, we are outside on the playground every day (unless it is raining). The children are also working on gross motor skills with Mrs. Gonzalez in Movement by participating in various obstacle courses. In order for the children to fully join in these activities, they need to wear sneakers and socks. We know that the children want to wear those new sandals they have gotten, but it really is a safety issue. Please tell your children they can wear their sandals at home, but at school they need to wear their sneakers. Thanks for your help with this! Lunch Bunch Bills for March and April Lunch Bunch were distributed this week. The last Lunch Bunch will be held on June 1st. The last Lunch Bunch bills (for the month of May) will be distributed by May 25th. This leaves a very short window for them to be paid by the end of the school year. Please help us by looking for the bills and paying them promptly. The last week of school, May 29-June 1 will be Pay as you Use it daily. Mother's Day Brunches The children are very excited about the “party” they have planned for their Moms on May 8th or 11th. We hope you enjoy it as much as the children and staff do! We have been busy cooking and practicing songs for everyone! 2018/19 School Year Before the school year is over, the Parent Packet will be going out to next year’s Westminster families. As a reminder, the health form, enrollment form and a record of immunizations must be received in the office by Sept. 5th. Feel free to drop off paperwork during the summer.
