Christmas Blessings

The Day School celebrated Christmas with meaningful chapel lessons, a wonderful music program by our 3 year olds, a beautifully done Lessons and Carols service by our 4 and 5 year olds, lots and lots of glitter, lights and elves, an array of Christmas attire, very creative Christmas crafts, more glitter, and sweet class parties organized by our moms. It has been a joyous time with our children!

Our wish for each of you is that you and your family have a meaningful, stress-free, Christ-centered Christmas. Think about these four things: worship fully, spend less, give more (of yourself), and love more. Don't worry about perfection, that's not what it is about. Remember, God's greatest expression of love came to us through the most human of all experiences, the birth of a child.

"For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:11

Blessings,
Kathy

It's Time To Be Nut Free

As we rapidly approach our Jan. 3rd date of being tree nut and peanut free in the IPC Day School I wanted to share the short list of easy acceptable snacks.  You can always check http://www.foodfacts.com which allows you to check ingredients about any product and www.SnackSafely.com which posts a lengthy list of safe foods and updates it monthly! You can sign up through email for the monthly updates to that list. As always, READ THE LABEL on everything you send to school! We have a very positive attitude about this new policy and will work through it together to ensure the safety of our precious children.
