The annual Pumpkin Patch was yesterday, October 20th, and the kids had a BLAST! Thank you Leigh Foster (Ryleigh, 2H) for putting together an amazing Pumpkin Patch. The children picked their favorite pumpkins, laughed at the silly scarecrow, and listen to Mrs. Suzie read a book. Patrick Mooney captured some great pictures of your kids enjoying the festivities for our yearbook and I will be uploading some on the blog!Make sure to allow your child to decorate their precious little pumpkin. Do not cut or carve this pumpkin in any way. Return your child's pumpkin to school for them to share with their class and to be displayed at the Fall festival.
Cookie dough fundraiser is due today. If you were unable to return your form today we will still take them up until Tuesday, October 25th. There will be a special pizza party for the class that brings in the most orders. The money that is raised will be used to continue to make furniture and classroom improvements. Checks should be made payable to Asbury Preschool and Kindergarten. If you prefer not to sell any of these items, we would appreciate a monetary contribution of $25.00 or more.

The Fall Festival will be next week, Friday October 28. Marcia Tipton has worked very hard to put together a fantastic day for you and your kids! Please plan to spend the entire day with your kid, there will be no aftercare or extended care. Drop off with be at 9:00 to your child's regular classroom and then they will come out in parade style in their costumes. Be sure to dress your child in a non-scary costume without a mask!

We are asking for 10$ donations per family to help cover the cost of special visitors and the hot dog lunch. If you are able to contribute prizes and wrapped candy there is a bin set up at the school in the hallway to places your item in. Set-up will begin at 8am and your child can stay in free early care during this time! Clean-up will happen immediately after the festival and the more people we have to help the faster and easier it will go for everyone. There is a sign up sheet hanging up outside of your child's classroom to work one of the games or activities, PLEASE help us make this day a special and memorable experience for your child. Your kiddo can walk around with their teacher while you are working the game or they can stay and help with you. The Parent/Grandparent/Aunt/Uncle volunteer's make this day a success!
