2011-2012 First Day Leucadia Campus

Welcome to the 2011-2012 school year. We are looking forward to many events at A Children’s Garden this year. Below you will find a short list of things that may be helpful on the first day of school.

Things to bring: (EVERYTHING SHOULD ALWAYS BE CLEARLY MARKED WITH THE CHILD'S NAME.)

Items to be labeled with child’s name:
1. Lunch in a lunch box.
2. At least two changes of clothing.
3. Diapers if needed, along with wipes. Please send an entire package.
4. You will also need a wooden wicker basket. Please choose a natural color wicker basket. No cloth baskets. You may  want to see samples at school before you bring yours in. (Don’t label the basket. We will make name tags)
5. A family photo 4x6 and child’s photo 4x6.
6. White child size t-shirt.

Do not label these items:
 Supplies:
1. package of Crayola washable markers
2. 3 bottles of glue
3. 3 bottles of liquid hand soap
4. box of colored pencils
5. ream of copy paper
6. 3 boxes of band aids

If your child will be taking a nap, please bring a check ($28.00)  to pay for bedding for the year. Your child will receive his own rollie pollie which will go home with you at the end of each week. If you already have one from last year, you do not need to purchase another one.

If this is your child’s first time in school we recommend having your child only stay until 10:00 am for the first few visits to transition. Parents may stay the first day until 9:30am. We will serve coffee and you can meet the other Children's Garden parents. Then, depending on the child, leave and come back at either 10:00 am or 12:30pm. The first week of school will be an adjustment period for your child.  Sometime in late September there will be a parent orientation meeting in the evening for parents only.
