Dear Nursery Families,
While it has been a pleasure to dance about the Maypole with the Butterfly Children for the past 4 weeks, I want to share with them my lap puppet show of Goldilocks and the 3 Bears for our final 8 classes (3 of these will be birthday celebrations; and one will be our final day of school). This story has often seemed just right for nursery children as in their play and social interactions the find points of balance in an active and imaginative life full of flux.
We will celebrate 3 birthdays in our final 2 weeks of school (summer birthdays for children who joined us after the year was underway). We will also wish Lynne a "bon voyage" as she departs to visit her daughter after this week. Children will get to experience her warm hello in the fall (whether in her class or as we meet in the hallways and playgrounds).
The following information about our last day of school, Wednesday, June 8, comes from our kindergarten newsletter.
The last day of all early childhood class is on Wednesday, June 8. Please join the Butterfly, Sunflower and Golden Forest classes for our last day celebration at 11:30. We will be serving strawberries and shortcake with mint water. If you are not able to come at 11:30, please arrange for your child to be connected with another parent who will be there, and let your child's teacher know of your arrangement. (Also, we would like to hear from all families enrolled in extended care whether or not you will be using the extended care on Wednesday June 8. Please let Cordula know your plans.)
The three classes will be making merry that morning (June 8) before 11:30 and would like to have a slew of fresh flowers for head wreaths and other adornments. Please bring a bouquet of fresh flowers on Monday or Tuesday of that week (June 6 and 7). We will store them in buckets of water until Wednesday morning.
Beginning after Memorial Day, we will have a large basket labeled "lost and found" in the hallway. Please go through your child's cubby and clean out any unnecessary items. Please put anything that doesn't belong to you in the basket. Also, periodically go through the basket to see if you recognize anything.
We are always taking donations for our extra clothes bins. Let us know if you have any such items.
On Friday, June 10th, 1:00 we will need a few hearty volunteers to help us move the furniture out of our rooms and into the perfectly stacked bathrooms in preparation for the carpet cleaners.
Finally, from me, William, expect an update about our nursery and parent & child summer on Friday, June 3 soon (it will likely take place at 11am in an exciting new location).
With warmth and light,
William Geoffrey Dolde
