You rock! Seriously. The way that you welcome incoming students is simply amazing!
When Princess started Kindergarten almost two years ago, I was a basket case. The thought of her being away from me for 8 hours a day in a school where I knew no one was excruciatingly painful.
Your Welcome To School club helped me more than I could ever say!
- The incoming Kindergarteners had organized play dates at the school playground.
- The incoming Kindergarteners were invited to hear a story read by the librarian in the school library.
- The incoming Kindergarteners were invited to workout in the gym with the P.E. teacher.
- The incoming Kindergarteners were invited to have lunch in the cafeteria
- And of course, the incoming Kindergarteners were invited to Kindergarten roundup!
And now, it is my little Prince's turn! We have gone to a play date, we missed working out in the gym because he had pre-school, we heard a story in the library, and today we are heading off with the other incoming Kindergarteners and their families to have lunch in the cafeteria. Granted, lunch will be way early today (9:45) but this is really for the experience and not the food.
So, GREAT JOB, Princess and Prince's school! Keep up the good work!
Sincerely,
MomOf3

That's such a great idea! I'll have to check and see if Baby Puppy's school does something like that. I sure hope so!
What an awesome way to get kids excited about starting school and to help ease some of the anxiety (for kids and parents both!). I wish our school did something like this!
