Infant Toddler

The children in the infant toddler room had a wonderful May, making memorable Mother’s Day art and lovely spring crafts. As well the children got to enjoy the sunshine by frequenting the surrounding parks on the many sunshine filled days of May.  June will hopefully bring many more sunshine days that the children will be enjoy the parks and trails. For June please ensure that your child has sunscreen, hat and appropriate footwear for that can be left at the centre for outside days.

In addition , watch out for the Father’s Day cards coming home .

Daycare Montessori

May was a busy month, the children learned, discussed, and experienced weather of all types this month. Children will be bringing home some fantastic art including fog, rainbows, wind art and clouds. As well in May the children finished the Fun Family Phonics alphabet and have an impressive compilation of abstract letters to show their parents at the graduation. Of course the sunshine called us outside to soak up Vitamin D in May and during our many outside days the children got to experience some weather first hand.
 For June children should bring in sunscreen, a hat and appropriate footwear for walking to and playing at the surrounding parks.

The Graduation will be held Wednesday June 24^th at 5pm. It will be a potluck style dinner that follows the graduation ceremony and the sign-up sheet will be available shortly.
