Greetings, Garden Families!
We are back from break and loving this beautiful weather. I am excited to announce that our first child-harvested, child washed garden greens went into Wednesday’s meal from Lena’s Lunches! The full cycle from seed to stew was achieved with the help of everyone on campus: parents, teachers, committee members, students and, of course, Ms. Lena! It has been a dream come true to use our own harvest in these lunches, thank you again to Eats for Kids, as well as to all of you, for your support. We look forward to many more JG harvested meals this semester! Summer School 🌞 Early Bird Enrollment for Summer School begins this week. The link to enroll will be live on the Parent Portal and you will receive a flier with details on times/dates and tuition costs. This year’s enrollment will be for a summer semester that extends from June 15th - August 13th with 2 and 4 day options. Returning JG students have between January 13th and February 17th to secure their spots; after this period, enrollment is open to the greater community. We hope to see everyone back for another super-fun summer of learning, growing and playing together in the Garden! Peanut & Cinnamon-Free Campus 🥜❌ Two students in our Primary Community have food allergies that require epipen treatments. Since Primary children travel regularly on campus, the safest choice for our community is to be Peanut and Cinnamon-Free. Refrain from packing snacks or lunches that contain these ingredients. If you have any questions about what is safe to send in your child’s lunch, contact admin@juliasgardenmontessori.com. We thank you for help keeping our students safe. Community Singalongs 🎶 We are inviting parents from each level classroom into Casetta on Thursday mornings at 9:00 AM to help us sing our favorite Julia’s Garden tunes! After taking the month of January to practice, each classroom will offer 1 - 2 invitations per family in a rotation to join us in song. The parent invitation schedule for spring semester singalongs is below, mark your calendars and expect to hear more from your child’s lead guide about the event closer to your community’s assigned day. We look forward to sharing one of our favorite JG weekly rituals with you!
