Dear Parents/Guardians,
Thank you for all your patience and support during the first month of preschool! Now that children are familiar with the new environment we are switching into full gear with learning and fun activities!
At this time we would like you to say your good-byes to the child before he/she enters and allow them to come in the room without the parent. This will encourage children to be more independent and will build their self-confidence.

Halloween
It’s just the beginning of October but children are already very excited about Halloween! We will have a small party and children are welcome to wear their costumes if they wish. We will appreciate if you can send cut up fresh fruits and/or vegetables as a treat.
Photos
During the course of our program we will be taking photos of children while they play. The quality of those photos may not be that great as we are not professional photographers and we are using our center phone instead of a professional camera. However, we would like to share these experiences with you. The pictures are just a quick snap shot of a moment in children’s play. The purpose of those photos is to give you a chance to see what is going on during the day and to save some memories of the fun times children have had.
Please note: After posting photos for a noted period of time we will delete all pictures. The link where you can see and download photos will be sent shortly to you by e-mail. Please make sure to confirm your e-mail address with teachers.

Germs Are Not For Sharing
Thank you to all those parents who kept sick children at home. We appreciate your consideration. Children often play very close to each other and we are trying to prevent spreading germs to the rest of the children. Please refer to the Parent Handbook if you are unsure whether to send your child to preschool or keep him/her home.
The best way to let us know your child will be absent is by texting our phone: 604 773-2781

Snacks and Celebrations
Our goal is to encourage healthy eating and support the motion towards consuming more of wholesome food. In addition to having only fresh fruit and vegetable for snacks every day, we would like to inform you that we will follow our “healthy food policy” for celebrations too. This includes: Birthdays, Halloween, Christmas and Easter. We will still be having parties and if you can send cut up fresh fruits and vegetables to share on those occasions we will greatly appreciate it.
Library Day
As a part of our reading readiness program, once a month we will take children to the school library. This year the only time slot we could get was 8:50 so we ask you to please try to be at the preschool on time that day. If it happens that you are late on a Library Day, please bring your child directly to the Harold Bishop School Library.
