As March Flies By...

Hello again, Pearson parents!

Well, it may be hard to believe, but winter is over and it's officially spring. We know that it may not seem real, what with the never-ending snow and ice (not to mention the frigid temperatures...the indoor days...the countless layers of hoodies and snow pants and mittens...) but yes, on paper, it is almost April. SPRING IS HERE! And with March flying by, we can only continue to hope that spring will TRULY be in the air sometime soon. 

Munsch Month has been a huge hit with our kids - 'The Paper Bag Princess', 'We Share Everything' and 'Mmm, Cookies' are a few of many Munsch tales that have been shared in the classroom, along with a lot of laughs. Have you seen a few Munsch-themed crafts on your child's art shelf lately, too? Our children had a blast making paper bag princesses of their own, as well as other fun projects. 

Looking back on the past month, one highlight was our bowling field trip days. Here are a few pictures of the fun had at Roseland Bowl -





Thanks for checking in - enjoy the rest of your week, and don't forget to send your kids to school with CRAZY HAIR!

It's Munsch Month at Pearson!


Doesn't everyone have a favourite Robert Munsch book, either from reading to their kids or from their own childhood? Were you into The Paper Bag Princess, a Mortimer kind of guy, or more of a Murmel Murmel Murmel type? This month, Pearson Community Co-op Nursery School is celebrating the works of Robert Munsch! Are these books already a favourite at home? Let us know which titles your kids are into - they might end up hearing them in class one day!

It's going to be another cold week, but teachers and parents alike are hoping for outdoors time - please remember to dress your children appropriately! 

We had an amazing couple of days at the bowling alley - stay tuned for photos from this very fun field trip!
