We want to wish everyone who celebrates a Happy Diwali this weekend! Diwali is the first celebration of light of the season, as the days start out darker and the nights become longer. The Garden playground is always a little darker as we are in the shadow of Tiger Mountain and even in early summer, the sun doesn’t hit the woodchips until noon. We love the sunny fall afternoons where we watch the steam rise from the woodchips while the Bees are running about. 

Pumpkin Patch Day today! How fun to gather as an entire school at this wonderful celebration of the season! The teachers are excited to play with you all this afternoon! 

Next week are the Parent Teacher Check-Ins. We hope you have all signed up for a time that works for you. It’s a great time to check in to see how your kiddo is doing, both at home getting ready for school, and at school and working with others. It’s a quick ten minutes, but you can always ask if you would like to discuss anything more in depth, or at a different time. Just let us know!

Ladybug

We loved asking the kiddos their pumpkin patch news. How fun it was to spend the afternoon with you all at Carpinito Brothers. 

Cricket

We loved asking the Crickets about their pumpkin patch news. How fun it was to spend the afternoon with so many of you at the Carpinito Brothers’ Pumpkin Patch!

Honeybee

It was so fun to spend the afternoon with so many of you at the Carpinito Brothers’ Pumpkin Patch! We loved seeing lots of big siblings take part as well. Not that we encourage playing ‘hooky’, but… It sure was fun!  :0)

We celebrated our first Honeybee birthday circle this week for Elli! Isn’t the Honeybee birthday circle the best? We love to watch the birthday Bee accepting the accolades that their classmates bestow on them. It’s a wonderful tradition and we’ve heard of many birthday books that are still on bookshelves as the alumni works their way through high school and beyond.
