Got Bottles?

We're holding our first "bottle drive" for the preschool. But there's a catch!

There's no drive!

Unless of course, you count the "drive" over to the preschool.

Here's how ours will work:

If you have bottles that you would like to donate to our preschool, bring them to us, when we're open. We'll store them in our storage room. When there is enough to fill the back of our truck, we'll take them over to the bottle depot for exchange into cash.

Sounds easy enough. Please make sure that the bottles are rinsed. If they are sorted, our job is even easier.

Thank you for helping us to continue to help our environment by sending the bottles for recycling, instead of sending them to the landfill. The proceeds will go to supporting our year end family celebration.

Child Care Conference.

We are so excited that our teacher is attending the 2009 Child Care Conference at McEwan Community College this weekend. What is particularly fascinating is that several of the sessions are focused on the Reggio Emilia Method that we use concepts of for our preschool. One of our board members is also attending. Between the two of them, we should have some interesting new ideas to hear about & implement into the centre.
