DECEMBER NEWSLETTER

Highlights from November

Thank you to the parents & staff of GVM for the fabulous Thanksgiving event. Children truly enjoyed the feast and grasped the concept of being “Thankful” for so many blessings that we counted on. In November, our Dolphins and Turtles did tons of crafts and learning based on the holidays and events.

It was great to meet the parents during our conference week. Parents are welcome to schedule a meeting with the teachers if they need to discuss anything between now and our next Spring conference.

December is the month to remember, Yay to the holiday season !  We are gearing up to celebrate the holidays at   GVM while continuing to learn about the holidays around the world. We will be learning about the holidays and traditions from around the world. The month of December also brings the season of ‘Giving.’ We would like to encourage our children to participate in some form of “Giving & Sharing “through the activities planned by your center.

We look forward to the Winter Performance. The children and staff have been working very hard each day rehearsing. Kindly refer to the schedule shared by the Directors along with the “Dress Code”. Winter performance is a formal event and we request parents to dress up their children formally as per the class dress code.

The entire staff of GVM wishes you Happy Holidays and a wonderful New Year! If you are traveling during the break, please travel safe and please refer to the travel guidelines by CDC.
