Quack Pack
Age: 5
This years Quack Pack room and activities will provide a fun and welcoming atmosphere. The daily schedule provides the children with activities that allow them to develop their social and thinking skills in a positive learning environment. The children are encouraged to learn through exploration and play, helping them to develop the confidence they need to grow. In the Quack Pack room we try to provide care that meets all needs of a growing child including love and guidance as well as learning.
In this section you will find a list of all the skills we will be focusing on this year. Also included is the supplies and donations list; please be sure your child has these items as soon as possible, we do ask that you get all new supplies for the year except for pillows and blankets.
A daily schedule is provided below and we do try to stick to this schedule daily. A monthly calendar will be put in your child's mailbox at the beginning of each month, please keep an eye on any upcoming events. Events will also be posted on our parent board.
We are very excited to start the new school year with your children, if you have any questions or comments please feel free to ask. Have a great year!!
