Dad’s Night at Parent/Child

April 27th, 2010

One of the highlights of the Parent/Child school year is Daddy Nights! This is a special night set aside and is offered as an extra class just for dads and their children. Their child shows them all that they do at their school. The evening ends with a short music time. Yes, your heart is so blessed to hear a group of dads sing “Jesus Loves Me!” with great enthusiasm.

P.S. Do you know WHY we don’t call Parent/Child “Mommy and Me?” Because our DADS are just as welcomed and involved as moms are in our program!

Grandparents Week

March 15th, 2010

Last month our Parent/Child kids brought their Grandparents with them to their Parent/Child class.  They had a very special time showing Grandma and Grandpa what they do at their “school.”  The moms and dads present were blessed by Grandparents sharing their “#1 Tip for Parenting” at our fellowship time.  Most commented on how important it is to have faith in our Lord instilled in our children at a young age.  (By the way… that happens to be one of our most passionate goals in the program…faith development tools for families with toddlers!)

VBSadimage

THEME: SON ROCK KID’S CAMP on the life of Peter
DATE/TIME: June 22 – 26, 9:00-12:00 a.m. daily plus Wednesday night family concert with Rob Biagi

With our construction last summer, we had to cancel plans for VBS, however, this summer we’re back with what we think will be one of our most exciting VBS weeks ever at St. Andrew’s! So, we want YOU to get involved in this summer!

Here’s how you can join in the fun:

1. Let your children, grandchildren, friends and neighbors know that sign-ups begin this SATURDAY, APRIL 18, 9:00-11:00 a.m. in the church plaza. Materials fee is $40.00 per child or $120.00 per family (maximum). Classes fill up quickly and space is limited to 550 children.

2. WE NEED YOU! With 550 children on our campus we need lots of volunteers (200, in fact) to help in so many wonderful ways. Won’t you please consider being part of our VBS volunteer staff for the week??? I can guarantee you’ll be more blessed than you can imagine by our precious kids.

3. Everyone who signs up to volunteer at VBS is eligible to register early and sign their children/grandchildren up early (plus we offer pre-school classes only for children/grandchildren of those volunteering).

If you would like to sign up to volunteer for the week OR if you’d like to find out more about responsibilities, please contact Brieana Searcy, 949.574.2220.

Grandparents Week in Parent/Child Classes

March 17th, 2009

In the Parent/Child classes, Grandparents recently had their own special week to visit class with their grandchildren. Moms and Dads who regularly attend class with their little one enjoyed the morning off and let their child show Grandma and Grandpa what they do at “school.” One of the many highlights of this event is the fellowship with one another and their “top tip for parenting” given at our fellowship time!

Did you know?

January 19th, 2009

St. Andrews offers a once a week PARENT/CHILD CLASS for moms, dads and their toddlers (12months-36months). Parents and their children have time to learn and have fun together through the activity stations set up in the classroom and in the outside play area. For our older toddlers’ class, our daily schedule includes a time for parents to connect with one another. During that fellowship/parent education time, we tackle the challenges and joys of Christian parenting. Then, music-movement-together time wraps up a busy, fun morning.
