Aug. 11, 2013 Religious Education Weekly Update

Fairy house in the roots of a tree
from the book by Tracey Kane

10 a.m. K-5: Katie Covey, DRE,  and Fiona Freeman-Grundei will lead the children in the sharing circle then read the book “Fairy Houses” by Tracey Kane. Building Fairy Houses slows us down, simplifies our choices, and indulges our imaginations while celebrating the web of life. We will spend a considerable amount of time outdoors so we ask that you provide your children with ample sun protection; sunscreen and/or hats.

10 a.m. Preschool/ Nursery:  Loving childcare with games, stories and freeplay. We will invite the older preschoolers to build fairy houses, too.
