EVENTS AND NEWSLETTERS

The Pre-K students have worked very hard over the past few weeks preparing for our annual Advent Program. They decorated their beautiful Christmas Trees at home with the help of their families. Our preschool students were our attentive audience and cheered them on as they performed "I'm the Happiest Christmas Tree".

Our Pre-K students took a walking field trip to find leafs in our neighborhood. They sorted and categorized the different leaves that they found.

The Annunciation Preschool students enjoyed a Faboolous Halloween celebration! We hope that family and friends will be able to join us once again next year! The children showed up for preschool in their own costumes and went to stations to experiment with a variety of activities. Enjoy the slideshow!

We are so grateful to be back and helping your children learn while also practicing social distancing and healthy habits. They are working so hard and smiling and laughing with their new and old friends!

I would like to start the year by thanking the staff and families of Annunciation Preschool! I am constantly reminded of what an amazing community we have here in Stockton. We are so grateful that we were able to reorganize our preschool program and daily schedule in order to meet all the new guidelines and recommendations for preschool programs. Welcome Back! We are looking forward to an exciting new preschool year of exploration!
