Christmas excitement is building at Tot Spot! Both the three and four year-old classes will be full of anticipation as we explore the joys of the holiday season. Our special day this month will be Red and Green Day on December 5th/6th. Wear red and/or green to school this day! While the children are excited about the receiving aspect of Christmas, we also like to focus on the joy of giving. With that in mind, we invite you and your child to bring in a food or a new unwrapped toy donation during the week of December 2nd – 6th. Donations need to be dropped off by 11:30 am on Friday, December 6th. All donations will be forwarded to the Salvation Army for their Food and Toy Drive.
During our last day of classes before the break (December 17th for T/Th classes, December 18th for MWF classes), you are invited to join us for our Christmas Celebration. Children should be dropped off in their classrooms at the regular time. The program will begin promptly at 9:15 am for the morning classes and 1:15 pm for the afternoon classes. Children will be dismissed following the celebration, which is approximately 45 minutes in length. We hope you will be able to join us for some songs, a special craft and refreshments on that day. As usual, grandparents and other guests are very welcome to attend!
Registration for the 2024/2025 school year is fast approaching! Registration dates are as follows:
January 13th – Registration opens for all current and former Tot Spot families.
January 20th – Registration opens to the general public.
Watch for more details in the January newsletter!
To help our program run smoothly, we ask that you take special note of these items:
- Please remind your child to only look at the beautiful decorations in the church, not to touch.
- Please supervise your children carefully in the foyer. The gym is closed before and after school and children need to use their “walking feet” on the ramp. We are hoping we no longer need to put out the sign by the gym every day and appreciate your help with this!
- Please remember to bring shoes to change into if your child wears their boots to school. Runners are best for the gym. We also practice regular fire drills and don’t have time to stop for boots on the way out!
