NEWS FROM THE NEST October 2020

Happy Fall! I hope everyone is enjoying the beautiful fall colors that we are having this year! Now is a perfect time to get outdoors and take a hike or sit by a lake. Maybe even get in your last camping trip of the year! It is also a time when we start slowing down and not moving so fast. This time of year is always an opportunity to reset and recharge. Enjoy the many things that fall brings; Hot apple cider, pumpkin patches, the many varieties of squash, leaf peeping, fuzzy socks, warm sweaters, and sitting by the toasty re with your family.

Fall also brings Halloween! It has been a hot topic this year since COVID has everything out of the ordinary and putting a damper on everyone's plans. In this case I am happy to announce that we will be providing the community with a fun opportunity to give the kids something close to a normal ordinary Halloween. The Health Department approved a Trick or Treat Drive Thru at Eagles' Nest! This event will be held on Thursday, October 29th at 5:30. All participants must wear a mask unless under the age of three. No one is permitted to leave their vehicle. All families can drive around our circle driveway as many times as they want to give their kids a chance to show off their costumes and collect candy. All Eagles' Nest staff will be wearing masks and gloves as we pass out candy. I know this is not the ideal Halloween but at least we can get close. I hope everyone of our families here at Eagles' Nest is able to participate in this event and enjoy the fun! See the attached yer below to share with friends :)

On October 29th the classrooms will have a little Halloween party for their students. We will not be able to have a school party due to COVID regulations. Games and fun Halloween treats will be provided.

Eagles' Nest will be closed for the following dates: Wednesday and Thursday 11/25-11/26 Wednesday and Thursday 12/23-12/24

Preschool Classroom The preschool class is working on recognizing each letter of the alphabet. There will be a 'letter of the week' assigned every Monday. The students will practice tracing and writing the letters daily. We encourage parents to help their children spell out their name and recognize the letters on a regular basis. This will assist them in the classroom during assignments.

Miss Salina will be sending home backpacks for the students at various times during the school year for families to work with their students on the materials inside. These are fun activities and help your child with their developmental skills. She will also be assigning homework to the students all homework will need to be returned to school. These assignments are meant to be benecial and not stressful.

The class took a hike into the woods to enjoy the fall colors and play! Look for pictures in Tadpoles.

Forms, Forms, Forms! Thank you for turning in and signing all forms and paperwork as needed! This has been truly seamless and makes it so much easier for us to meet the State regulations.

Accepting New Students Eagles' Nest is accepting new students in the infant nursery and preschool classroom. Help spread the word and tell your friends!
