Thankful Feast
One of our favorite events of the year is coming up, and we'd love to have you join us!  We will celebrate Thanksgiving with our annual Thankful Feast, bringing together our preschool students, their parents and siblings, and our staff to share a meal.  The cost is $5 per farmily, and WFPP will supply the turkey and ham.  Your child's teacher will put out a sign-up for you to bring along a dish to share.  Our meal will be held at 11:00 a.m. in the CLC.
 
Monday, 11/24: Bees, Ducks, Fish, Frogs
Tuesday, 11/25: Teddy Bears, Butterflies, Ladybugs, Turtles

Thank You for Your Support!
Thanks to everyone who came out to help build our scholarship fund by visiting Milton's for dinner last Tuesday!  We raised money and had some good food in the process.

We will hold another dinner fundraiser in the spring.

As It Gets Colder
Please remember that our children will go outside to play on the playground as long as the temperature is 40 or above, without precipitation.  Send appropriate outerwear, and please label those coats and jackets with your child's name.  Thank you!
 
Fall Pictures Due Thursday, 11/6
Please return your fall picture orders by Thursday, 11/6.  Your photos will be back in time for the holidays.  Thank you for supporting our scholarship fund through this great program, and thanks to Kenny for some great work, as usual!

Tri-Area Ministry Food Pantry Needs Help!!
Tri-Area Ministries needs food items to distribute to local needy families.  Tri-Area is a non-profit ministry serving the needy in Rolesville, Wake Forest, Youngsville and surrounding areas.  Let's teach our children the importance of giving to others, who are in need and less fortunate, by donating non-perishable food items.  You may place donations in the bins located outside your child's classroom in the preschool hallway.

Collection dates will be from November 3rd through November 21st.
