Dear Families,
Wow! I can’t believe it’s already May! I want to take a moment to thank you all for such a wonderful year! It has truly been such a blessing to be the director this year and lead this amazing staff and group of children. Each child is a gift from God and so precious! Anderson Hills Preschool exists to help grow a child’s love for Jesus, love for others and love for learning. What a joy and a privilege it has been to watch your children blossom and grow this school year.
CHAPEL
I have enjoyed leading the children in Chapel each month. Our final Chapel days will take place May 6 and 8. The theme of Chapel this month is “Jesus Is Always With Us!” Our chapel song will be “Praise” by Fellowship Christian Kids. I will be sharing the story “The Holy Spirit Comes” from the Beginners Bible and discussing how the Holy Spirit lives within each of us to keep us close to God.
VEHICLE VISITS
The Anderson Township Fire Department will be visiting the preschool with a fire truck and ambulance on May 12 and 16 (weather permitting) and the children will learn how the firefighters use the different features of the vehicle when they respond to a call for help. May 14, Forest Hills Public Schools will be bringing a school bus for our 4 and 5 year old students to check out in preparation for kindergarten.
SUMMER READING
The Hamilton County Library will once again host a Summer Reading Program. I encourage your family to take part in this free program. The program runs from June 1- July 31 and children will receive a free book and activity book at sign up. Children earn fun prizes as they continue reading or listening to stories throughout the summer. You can get more information on the Hamilton County Public Library website. In terms of learning, the most important activity you can do with your child is to read to them every day and I encourage your family to participate in the library’s program this summer.
