We hope you had a wonderful and joyous holiday season. Welcome back!
It’s wonderful to see all the children back in school. We know the holidays are always busy, yet we had many parents volunteering their time. We thank all of you who have volunteered at The Robin’s Nest during the year. Parent participation is very important to the school and the children love it too!
The children enjoyed a busy and exciting holiday season at The Robin’s Nest. On the evening of December 14th more than 500 people attended the annual Christmas program presented by Mrs. Kelly Groves and The Robin’s Nest children. It was enjoyed by all!
Breakfast with Santa was a fun and festive morning for children and their families on December 9th. Robin’s Nest would like to thank SiBelle Jewelry, Stephanie Biewend’s business, for helping sponsor our breakfast. Check out her amazing website for specialty items at www.sibellejewelry.etsy.com. We are so blessed to have such wonderful support again this year. We would also like to thank our volunteers, cooks, and teachers for making Breakfast with Santa a success.
SANTA SHOP
A big thank you to Kristina Menke, Jill Pearen, Kayla Marsh, Heather Dominie, Linda Heywood, Christy Nash, Michelle Zamparelli, Mary Kis, and all of our volunteers for their help with shopping, organizing, wrapping, and staffing the Santa Shop. The Santa Shop would not be the success it is without you!

ILLNESSES
Our school takes the health of our students very seriously and takes many precautions to control the spread of illnesses and to protect the health of your child. There are additional measures you can take at home to protect your child’s health as well, including:
- follow the basic prevention measures of hand washing, cough and sneeze etiquette and regular cleaning of high touch surfaces
- monitor your child for signs and symptoms of illness
- keep your child home from school and other activities when ill
- keep children home until they no longer have symptoms of illness and are feeling well and able to fully participate in daily programs – children must be free of fever and vomiting for 24 hours before returning to school
- seek medical attention if your child becomes ill, especially if they are at increased risk for complications from illness
SAVE THE DATE!
