It was a heart-filled potluck lunch today at Sunflower Preschool. The air was filled with appreciation, reconnection, and the forging of new friendships. We had a brief presentation to acknowledge the support of all stakeholder groups and to inform the community of our plans to attend to the garden enhancement next. This does not mean that we won’t continue to work on the classroom space; however, our next big (and main) fundraising event, a Gala Night, will target the enhancement of our secret garden into a beautiful playscape. More information on that event to come. In the meantime, check out these inspiring resources that are informing our vision and hopeful collaboration with outdoor designer, Phil Adams.

- Earth Play Blog (a wonderful resource on outdoor education)
Thank you all of those families who have volunteered to support the preschool via the sign up sheets today. I will post those sign up sheets on Wed in a Google Doc so that you can sign up or check your commitment at any time. What a powerful introduction to the year and to this wonderful community!
