Fun at the Farm! - October 21, 2010

This Thursday morning took our Little Seedlings on a field trip to the Veurink Farm to revel in the crisp autumn air and enjoy some of God’s wonderful creation: from bouncing on hay bails, to petting the ponies, to enjoying the fellowship of our friends!

Thanks, Katarina, for the beautiful pictures!

Man, Woman, and Applesauce! - October 14, 2010

Nothing says “Autumn” like making applesauce on a cold and dreary fall morning! Our 15 Little Seedlings loved helping to cut the apples and enjoyed a cupful of warm and tasty applesauce after their playtime and lessons.

This morning we learned about God creating man and woman in his image, thanks to the help of our wonderful teachers and Mr. Potato head! The kids love to sing the worship songs and are getting pretty good at the action songs and keeping a good rhythm with the instruments!

Up and Running! - October 7, 2010

The 2010-2011 Little Seedlings season is up and running! After a very encouraging first week with some new and some familiar faces, we had an astounding 18 kids show to our second week and first "regular" morning. The kids had a wonderful time (as usual) and studied the first lesson in the Generations of Grace curriculum, and what better place to start than "in the beginning"? Check out www.generationsofgrace.com for more info on the lesson plans that we will be using this year.

A reminder to the parents that the duty schedule has been posted and that Moms (and Dads) are invited to remain in the church for some quiet time or meet in the JK/SK classroom where we will be reading "Power of a Praying Parent" together in a time of sharing.

Next Mothers Market

Our next Mothers Market is Saturday, November 6th at the West Arthur Community Centre. We need help with set up the night before, help the day of the sale and help cleaning up after.

Let Lezlie or Linda know how you can help.

Parents' meeting and play morning

We had 16 kids join us to play as their parents attended the information session to learn about Little Seedlings 2010-2011. We've had a couple of new families come and it's always nice to make new friends.

We'll see you next week when we start our year.
