One of the busiest seasons is quickly approaching.  Before we prepare for it, let’s take a minute to look at this picture and be thankful for what we are blessed with…children, faith, friendships, good health, laughter and the joy of sharing these every day.  Here at Bridges, we are focusing on all we have and remembering to be thankful for it.  Click November Newsletter to see what we have in store for this month.

Please note:  There has been a change in the school calendar for the month of December.  A revised calendar is now available.  A Christmas schedule will be posted in November and separate invitations will be sent home at a future date.

Halloween can be so much fun.  We are celebrating with a parade.  Please click ”Halloween Parade” to be sure you don’t miss a thing.

A sense of humor, a quick thinking mind and the ability to “leap tall buildings in a single bound” are all necessary requirements to successfully guide a toddler through their day.  If  you want a quick glimpse into our day, read our Toddler’s Creed.

Week one has ended  and if you go to the Gallery you can look at all the fun we had.

You would never know this is the beginning of a new year.  Our staff works very hard at making sure each child feels comfortable and important.  They did a fabulous job!  They are a great bunch of ladies and we’re lucky to have them.

Thanks also goes to you, the parents, for giving us such great students.  Without your help at home, we wouldn’t be able to accomplish all we do.  Job well done!

Our kindergarten children and their teachers work very hard all year long.  For Ms. Nancy and Ms. Rosalie it is a true labor of love.  If you ever wondered what makes Bridges Kindergarten so special, click on the video link below and find out…..Caution: viewing frequently requires a supply of tissues.

Now it’s Dad’s turn.  We have a special night planned for you.  Click Father’s Night at Bridges 2011 to get all the details.

It is so nice when people take time from their busy schedule to visit our school.  Today Fireman Nick (Antonia’s Daddy) spent his day teaching our children about fire safety.  He showed them all his gear and explained the importance of each item.  He attempted to create a mock rescue so the children can see what it feels and looks like to see a firefighter in full gear.  He even had Ms. Roberta try on his jacket so she could see just how heavy it truly is.  His easy manner and warm smile encouraged the children to tell their own stories and ask questions.  We want to thank Fireman Nick and his family for sharing such an important topic with us.

You can visit the Gallery to see more pictures of Fireman Nick, his family and our students.

February might be short in days, but the students of Bridges have quite a bit planned.  We are celebrating, dancing, singing, learning and much more.  To see what we’ve got planned for the next 28 days, read  the February Newsletter.

Happy New Year and welcome back to Bridges.  We look forward to seeing our friends on Monday, January 3rd, 2011.  A new year and a new month always bring much excitement.  To see what’s coming, please open our January Newsletter.
