Welcome!
The Parent Group at Here Wee Grow! Preschool is much like that of a PTO in the public schools. There is a chairperson to organize and conduct the meetings. This chairperson is also a parent, so together, the parents of Here Wee Grow! students work together to assist the HWG staff in events planned during the year.
Our parent group began several years ago by two fathers and has remained a vital part to the HWG family. It has been helpful in bringing special groups, such as Huga Tuga (reading program) and the Mystic Aquarium traveling classroom to our school. Funds raised also allow the 4 year olds to go on a Field trip in the Spring. For most this is their first school bus ride and they have such a fun time! The parent group has also been very generous to the school by presenting a gift at the end of the school year.
The parent group is also involved in different community and charity fundraising. Our annual winter carnival is when we collect food donations to donate to the Enfield Food Shelf. Every spring the students decorate their bicycles and ride laps to collect donations for St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital .
We are excited to begin the 2011-2012 school year and look forward to working with our returning families alongside our new families. Information will be sent home during September to welcome you and update you on the preliminary plans for the year.
Some of the exciting things you can look forward to this year;
Square 1 Art fundraiser –
(purchase merchandise for family and friends with your child’s artwork)
Red Robin Fun’Raiser Night
Barnes and Noble Night
Annual Winter Carnival –
(admission is food donations for the Enfield Food Shelf)
Spring Egg Hunt
Friendly’s Fun Night
4 year old Field trip
3 year old in school enrichment program
We are always looking for new ideas and feedback from our parents. If you have any questions or comments regarding the parent group you can direct them to Mandi Herzig at mherzig@cox.net.
We are excited to get started and have a great year for our kids!
