The last week of the 4-Year-Old-Class has come and gone. In typical NNS tradition, the teachers had a wonderful last week planned that was both fun, exciting as well as special. This was a 3-day week due to Memorial Day and it couldn’t have been any better. Tuesday was the girl’s last music class and sharing day. They enjoyed the day and also brought swim suits to play in wading pools to keep cool in the warm temps. Wednesday was Diner Day. All the parents were invited to come and be taken care of. The children wore aprons and hats and took our orders at the NNS diner. We had 3 choices of ice cream flavors as well as sprinkles- ice cream just isn’t the same without it you know! The children looked precious and took their roles very seriously. After each parent was served, the children could have some ice cream and join their family. It was super cute. And at last Thursday came. This was a day I was so excited for, yet wanted to wait for all at the same time. I have been beyond thrilled with their nursery school and am sad to no longer be a part of it. It is a little easier knowing that Benjamin will go there in a few years though. The girls picked out matching dresses to wear, we had their teacher gifts packaged and ready and took the mandatory front-door pictures, and away they went. The day was an extra-special one as they were having a tour of their new school, Marion Cross. They got to see the 3 kindergarten classrooms, the gym, art room, computer lab, library, etc. The afternoon ended with the Summer Birthdays Celebration. There are 7 children that have birthdays in the summer so they were celebrated. We had pizza and popsicles for them, and an extra playtime on the playground. At 3:00 when the bell was rung, the children sang, The More We Get Together and shared hugs and smiles, as the mommies shared smiles with happy tears. These children are so well prepared for kindergarten and we are forever grateful to NNS and the wonderful teachers there.
So Long, Farwell…
