Head of School Reflection

Dear Redeemer Community,

It is a gift to be part of a faith community like Redeemer. Last Wednesday our entire school gathered for chapel to celebrate Ash Wednesday. From a very young age, Ash Wednesday was an important faith tradition in my home. It was a time for all of us to collectively reflect on ways we could make the world a better place through our actions and choices. While in the Bible the dusting of ashes is mentioned as a sign of mourning and repentance, as a little girl it felt like a gift of hope, a time when no matter how little I was, I could make a difference. This still holds true today. Our little ones have the power to change the world, one small gesture at a time. It is our job as their parents and teachers to guide them. Please consider using this Lenten Activity Calendar as a guide over the upcoming weeks to help your children understand the incredible impact they can make. Imagine what we can accomplish together!

Best regards,

Mary Knott

February has been full of fun surprises! Although the groundhog saw his shadow, we have been grateful for the much milder temperatures. The children have enjoyed getting nice and muddy on the playground! We loved learning about what makes a shadow and creating our own unique shadows outside and in the classroom. LOVE was in the air on Valentine’s Day and the children were thrilled to share their special cards with their classmates. The rest of the month we have been talking about the pets we have or pets we would like to have. The children made dog puppets, chalk art cats and paper plate parrots. We continue to use our math minds daily and have practiced the lower case letters o, a, g, d, s, e, r, and p! Phew! The next unit we will dive into will be the weather, as we roll into the month of March. Will we roar in like a lion or out like a lamb?
