The Westminster Nursery School Times
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.
“Community Helper” Field Trips
We are in the process of scheduling field trips for our 4-year olds to the Post Office, Police Station, and Fire Department. Look for information regarding dates on the classroom doors. Our goal is to schedule these trips in April and May.
Spring Enrichment Camp
WNS will again be offering Spring Camp for all enrolled children. Spring Enrichment Camp is scheduled for June 5-14 from 9:00-11:30 am. A separate flyer and registration form with additional information will be sent home at a later date.
Music Week
Music Week will be held March 11-15. Each day will start with a morning assembly. We talk about keeping the beat, our voices as instruments and string, wind, and percussion instruments. During the assembly, guest musicians demonstrate different types of instruments, including piano, hand bells, violin, and flute. The children make their own musical instruments and play along with our guest musicians.
