Holy Week In Review

Thank you, parents and teachers, for helping to make Holy Week with Highrock Kids! a time of meaningful reflection and raucous celebration. Pictured at right: 10:45am Four year-olds teacher Kirsten Liu and 10:45am Three year-olds teacher Tina Huang. Aside from eating lots of cotton candy afterwards, in children's worship on Easter morning, the children learned why it mattered that the temple curtain was torn in two when Jesus died. Be sure to ask them about it! 

For Parents of Preschoolers

You got diaper changes down, but what to do now that your child is walking, talking, and exploring limits? Join us Sunday, April 14 at 9am only for Milestone 2: The Disciple. The seminar is designed to help you...
 
Capture a vision for God's purposes for you child
 Connect with other parents who are navigating the preschool years

The Calendar for Grades K-5
 
Our elementary school children are encountering God in all kinds of exciting ways in Sunday School - ask them about the picture at right! We have them one hour each week, but you have your children ALL WEEK LONG. Grow with God as a family by setting aside 5 minutes a day to talk about the question or complete the activity of the day on The April Calendar. Your child can't remember answers to the questions? No problem! Check in on what they are learning here
 
March Calendars are due back this Sunday, April 7. Feel free to go back and complete activities missed! Children receive individual prizes as well as class prizes for participation.
