“Welcome back to school!” Most children are now back in school for the 2010-2011 school year. It is again the time for all of us to be extremely cautious as we are driving. Our precious children are so happy to be in school! This looks like a very good start to a very great year! And as another reminder, please obey the law and be extra cautious when it comes to driving and using a cell phone. If you really need to communicate, please pull over and do so. School busses are busy transporting our children. Please, please, please stop when you see the red lights flashing as children get in or out of a bus.
Our Alumni Barbeque at Ortega Park was so much fun! It was so nice to see so many of our alumni children and families as well as our current and up-coming families! “Thank you” to everyone who came and helped us to have a great time! There are so many people to thank, and especially Wenxiao for barbequing our yummy meat! He is the father of Edwin and Zackery. Also, to Chea-Hwa for helping organize the set-up, fun, and clean-up. Chea-Hwa is the mother of Beverly!
We collected over $200 for our basket raffle! This money will be used for our staff development. “Thank you” to all of our parents who donated such beautiful prizes to our raffle! And “Thank you” to Canon Music for donating group music lesson material and Klikko manipulatives! We hope everyone enjoyed themselves at our annual alumni barbeque potluck!
On September 14, 1998, New World CDC opened the Sunnyvale center! Our anniversary is approaching us again this month. Most of our staff has been working with us for 7 – 10 years and more! Our first school is in Taiwan. We have another preschool in Walnut Creek, and an after-school program in Cupertino. Come by sometime for a tour of our center. The drop-in visiting hours are from 9:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. Please call to make an appointment if you are not able to visit at that time of day. We would love to see you and your child/ren!
New World CDC will be CLOSED: Friday, Sept. 3, for Staff In-Service Day, and Monday, Sept. 6, in honor of Labor Day. We hope you and your family have a safe and happy holiday weekend!
St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital will have our Trike-a-thon on Sept. 16 and 17. The children are able to bring their bikes, trikes, scooters, AND helmets. We will make our Trike-a-thon a fundraiser along with bike safety awareness. Please donate whatever you can to this worthy cause!
Family pictures may be brought in to your child’s classroom this month. We enjoy seeing the pictures of our families whether at home or on an outing. We will be sharing our pictures with our friends and see how we are similar or different. The children always enjoy seeing pictures – especially of themselves!
This month we will celebrate “Moon Festival”. The children will be making something special in honor of this celebration. September 22 is the date.
Also on September 22, New World CDC will have a fundraiser at Chuck E. Cheese on Steven’s Creek Blvd. close to Vallco Shopping Center. This is always a fun evening socializing with other parents from New World CDC. We will receive 15% of the proceeds. Come and have fun with family and friends!
Fall Photos: Jesse from Flip’s Photos will be here once again on Wednesday, September 29 to take individual and group pictures of our children. He will start at approximately 8:30 a.m. and usually finishes before lunch; 11:30 a.m.
As a reminder: Please try to stay within your child’s schedule here at New World CDC. For those children who are scheduled to be picked up on a nine-hour day, please try to stay within ten minutes. We appreciate your kind consideration in this matter in order for our parking lot to have spaces available for our parents who are still coming in to pick up their child/ren.
“Happy back-to-school, and drive safely!” |
