Heads Up November Family Friendly Activities and Save the Date
Annual Fall Harvest Feast for School Families

Secret Holiday Shop for Kids Begins November 16
We are entering our 24th year of our secret holiday shopping experience with Jolly Boutique. It’s a great experience for children to learn more about giving and receiving, shopping and budgeting. Parents choose the recipients and how much to spend. Prices range from $1 to about $25. Purchases are bagged and labeled with names of recipients to keep the gifts as a secret surprise for recipients! Staff help children shop. It’s always been lots of fun for the kids and their gift recipients. We will be distributing shopping materials and information. You will find materials in your child’s art/information file in early November. Stop by the front office if you have questions.

Field Trip to the Rancho Buena Vista Adobe
In addition to our presentations, our Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten classrooms visited the historic 170-year-old Rancho Buena Vista Adobe. Kids learned about the Rancho and orchard, made crafts, and baked cookies in the kitchen. A lot of fun fall activities!
