Greetings,

Spring has arrived (at least it feels like it), and our young learners have been engaged in enriching learning experiences. They have explored the vibrant world of colors, including the mysteries of rainbows, and encountered fascinating animals at the veterinary clinic. Additionally, they have delved into the intriguing letter Q.

The upcoming months promise an abundance of further learning opportunities. We remain committed to nurturing their independence, self-regulation, and play skills, which are essential for their development at this stage of life.

Embrace the warm weather and as always, please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any concerns, questions, or suggestions.

Warm regards,

Julie

We will learn all about keeping our teeth healthy next Thursday when Dental Associates of Walpole visits the preschool. This is a highlight for the students, so look for photos!
