SUPPORT FOR VETERANS
The Day Care children have made fall cards for Veterans, thanking them for
their service. Along with a Grace Church youth group, we are also
collecting items for the Veterans’ Home. If you can help out with any of the
items, that would be great!
Fall Party
The Day Care “Fall Party” will take place on Friday, October 28. This is one
of those times that you may wish to sign up to bring favors or treats for
your child’s class. Although we will not wear costumes or masks, we do
encourage your child to wear jeans or denim clothes, plaid shirts, boots,
western hats, etc… We will plan special games and activities that day
instead of our regular preschool/learning activities in the morning.
OCTOBER FUNDRAISER
Grace Day Care will be selling Little Lambs Gourmet Cookie Dough (delicious,
pre-formed cookies, ready to bake) and yummy nut brittle. Prices range from
$5.00-$15.00. Brochures will go out the first week of October; they will
need to be returned with payment by October 21.
COMPUTER CLASSES FOR YOUR CHILD AT GRACE DAY CARE
Mrs. Becker is working with Jodi Cottrell to provide CompuChild computer
enrichment classes at Grace for three through five-year olds. This is a
voluntary program parents would sign up and pay for separately from day care
fees.
The computer classes will be held in a classroom on the lower level on the
first and third Tuesday of each month, beginning October 4. Classes last
approximately 30 minutes, and will start at 8:30 am.
DAY CARE CHILDREN TO TAKE CITYBUS TOUR
On Wednesday, October 19, the Sunshine Kids and the Thunderbolts will take a
bus trip! We will be picked up at 10:00 am by a City Bus and taken downtown
to the garage.
Bus safety will be discussed and several types of buses will be shown. The
children will also get to ride through a bus wash. The bus will bring us
back at 11:00 am. Questions? – Please call Katy Dietrich from CityBus, at
765-420-2957.
Extra teachers will accompany us, but if any parents wish to come, please
let Mrs. Becker know. There is no cost for this.
We must, however, have your written permission on the form below in order
for your child to take the bus tour.
