Walking Through the Jungle

Hello again, Pearson Parents! As we gear up for another busy week at school and in our homes, please enjoy this video featuring our current book (and song) of the week at Pearson Community Co-op Nursery School - 'Walking Through the Jungle':


(Is there a children's song that Fred Penner HASN'T recorded? We think 'no'.)

There is a lot happening in the weeks to come, including our General Meeting on May 14th as well as our annual family picnic on May 31st - more details on that will be coming soon. We hope to see you all there - it's sure to be a great day, and a wonderful way to get ready to welcome summer, which is right around the corner.

Thanks, as always, for reading - check back soon, and have a fantastic week!

Pete the Cat & Rainbow Fish

If your child has been rocking out at home, this may be why: last week's featured story was Pete the Cat! Pete is pretty groovy, as you can see...


This week, our children are reading Rainbow Fish. This award-winning book by Marcus Pfister is all about being yourself and not blending in with the crowd - a wonderful lesson for our kids, and a fun way for them to build confidence in themselves.



Please remember that RAINBOW DAY is later this week - check your calendars and be sure to send your kids in as many bright colours as possible!

Thanks again for reading, and enjoy the warm spring air!

Welcome April!

Hello, Pearson parents! It's a new month and a new week, and that means a new featured book: Duck on a Bike.


This cute story tells the tale of a duck who lives on a farm and has a wild idea - he wants to ride a bike! He wiggles and wobbles and looks sort of silly, but none of that matters because he has plenty of fun. The other farm animals aren't exactly impressed by his new skill at first, but that all changes when they see a group of kids racing along with duck. We hope your children enjoyed decorating their own yellow ducks with tissue paper at the craft table at school - and please remember, it's yellow day at school later this week!

Thanks as always for reading - check back soon!
