We love the playground!

We thought you might like to see these photos of your children enjoying our school playground.  We are usually outside on the playground everyday from about 10:30-10:50.  By going outside before lunch, we have seen several advantages within the last few years:
  • The playground is not as crowded as it is in the afternoon, and our students are generally playing with other kindergarten students, and not the older children.
  • The temperature is a bit cooler than afternoon.
  • Because the children have used energy running, jumping, climbing, sliding, and swinging, they are more hungry at lunch.  They drink more of their milk or juice, and eat more of their food.
  • Our students are more calm after lunch and are ready to begin their afternoon lessons.
