The school year ended so quickly! Thanks to the Weitzman family, the kids enjoyed every lick of it!! Yes, I said lick. Greg and Danny Weitzman came in on our last day of school and surprised the kids with an ice cream party. Just imagine 35 kids, a vat of ice cream and 80 degree weather! Luckily we were prepared as the kids were already enjoying an end of the year mud day celebration. It was messy fun! THANK YOU to the Weitzmans for the wonderful treat and a new tradition!!
The children are enjoying Camp I Am, especially messy art day and water days. So far they have been exposed to dance, music and puppetry. One of our personal highlights was during our week of ballet. ECLC Alum Emilie Liron came in and talked about all the different types of shoes worn for each style of dance. She also performed and taught the children some basic dance steps. Thank you, Emilie, for sharing your talents with us!! Our famous person of that week was Mikhail Baryshnikov. There is nothing quite as cute as hearing a two-year-old say his name! During our music week we discovered one of our new parents, Erica Steele, is a musician/songwriter. She came in and performed an original song, as well as some kid favorites. The Didgeridoo (an Australian instrument) was a crowd favorite.
School enrollment for the fall is open; however, space is limited!! Most classes are close to capacity, so come in soon for information about registering your child.
We would like to welcome our newest students: Maya Zalob, Hannah and Benjimin Green, and Liam Summerhill.
