Parties/Snacks/Allergies
Parties Celebrating birthdays at snack time is a fun part of preschool. Special treats (store bought only) may be sent in to celebrate, but please no birthday party “extras” such as goodie bags, piñatas, balloons, ect . Cupcakes or cookies work well. Please arrange this with your child's teacher. In addition, if you are planning a party away from school, teachers would be happy to distribute individual invitations as long as the entire class in invited. Also, each class will have a variety of special occasions to celebrate such as Thanksgiving Feast, Birthday Party for Jesus, etc., during the year. The teacher will have a signup sheet if you would like to help plan and/or provide snacks for the event. School Snacks Daily snacks will be provided by the preschool. These snacks consist of finger foods like crackers, goldfish or pretzels. Teachers will have access to ingredient labels, if needed. Food Allergies If your child has a food allergy or other allergy, please make sure the teacher is aware. On our registration form, you were able to list any allergies there. Teachers will also post a sign at the classroom doors indicating allergies specific to that class. Please keep these allergies in mind when sending in special snacks or birthday treats. We will keep our preschool a “peanut-free” environment. If your child has a food allergy, you may want to send in a small supply of "safe" snacks to keep in the classroom for your child to have, if needed. |
