Our One's Having Fun

Director's Corner

Dear Parents,

This year has flown by so fast we have hardly had time to realize it is already October!!!! Pretty soon we will be celebrating the birth of our Savior and then ringing in a new year! But before we get to that lets take a moment to celebrate the present. Its been a wonderful start to the school year, it is so great to see so many of our little ones now in older classrooms. Of course it is always bitter sweet watching them grow, we want them to stay little but we also beam with pride with every milestone they reach. Thank you to everyone who helped with the fall cookie dough fundraiser, we were able to raise a little under $1000 to use for additional playground toys and classroom enrichment items.

The teachers and children are working hard in the classroom but we are also looking forward to lots of fun that we have in store as well.

With everything going I want to say a special thanks for being a part of our family here at FOC. We feel so blessed to have your children with us and we are so grateful for the opportunity to see their smiling faces everyday

Many Blessings,

Jill Hammond, CDC Director

CDC Character Parade and VPK Trick or Trunk!

On Wednesday, October 30th, we will have our annual Character Parade. The parade will start with the infants at 9:00 and each class will follow behind about every 5 minutes. The infants (in a stroller) ones and two year olds will parade out the front door, around the overhang and back to their class. The threes and up will parade out the door and around the parking lot (Building one) and back to their class. Our VPK Classes will walk down to the elementary school soccer field for Trick or Trunk after they finish the parade.

Please bring your child to class dressed in costume (nothing scary) and no later than 8:45. We will be closing the parking lot at 8:55 and NO CARS will be allowed IN or OUT after that time. Parents are invited to stay and watch the parade but your child must be dropped off in class and then you may wait outside to watch the parade. The parking lot will be closed and NO cars will be allowed to move until the entire parade is over (by 9:30).

Please do not send any costume props with your child and make sure they are wearing shoes that they can walk in.

This is a fun event that your child is sure to enjoy. If you have any questions, please feel free to speak to Ms. Jill at anytime.
