So much awesomeness going on, including: saying thank you and farewell to our\u00a0practicum student Jennifer, celebrating our moms, having a fun pajama day, visiting The Gallery in\u00a0the Park, and having a Teddy Bear Picnic! Our morning fours even had a \u201cCat Day!\u201d A highlight of the month\u00a0was celebrating Ms. Naho and surprising her with a baby shower! Congratulations Ms. Naho and thank\u00a0you everyone for your loving kindness shared and expressed! What a wonderful community we are!<\/p>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\">It is so hard to believe that the month of May is over and here we are welcoming the month of June!\u00a0Where did the year go?\u00a0In the month of June we have set our dates for Kindergarten Transition Meetings! This is such an\u00a0exciting and bittersweet time! If you have not signed up and wish\u00a0to have a chat with the teachers let us\u00a0know! For two weeks we are welcoming practicum student Cora Efrom. Cora will be with us from\u00a0May 30th until June 10th. Thank you for helping Cora feel welcome. Queen\u2019s Park Preschool loves to host<br \/>practicum students. It is a great opportunity for learning and growing together as a team, as well as\u00a0mentoring future early childhood educators!<\/p>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In the month of June we have some fun activities planned! <strong>Thursday June 2nd and Friday June 3rd <\/strong>are Water Day! Bring extra clothes please (shorts\/bathing suit\/towel) and weather permitting we will have\u00a0lots of water play outside.\u00a0On <strong>Thursday June 9th and Friday June 10th<\/strong> we are celebrating all of the summer birthdays!<\/p>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Don\u2019t forget that our last days of preschool are on <strong>Thursday June 16th and Friday June 17th<\/strong>. On the last\u00a0days of school we have a one hour class! In the fours we have a small graduation ceremony planned and a party snack. In the threes we have a party snack planned and some extra fun activities! (Morning classes on the last days are from <strong>10:00-11:00 <\/strong>and afternoon classes are<strong> 1:00-2:00<\/strong>.)<\/p>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Thank you everyone for making Queen\u2019s Park Preschool the magical, wonderful, warm community it is!\u00a0We truly are lucky to play, learn, and grow together. We are family after all, in so many ways! To those\u00a0graduating and moving on, we will miss you. To those returning in the fall, we can\u2019t wait to meet again!<\/p>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Have a safe and happy summer everyone!<br \/>Your teaching team.<\/p>\r\n<div id=\"attachment_2927\"
