Week of April 22






Nursery and PreK Music Makers

Our Nursery and PreK students did a terrific job on their prayer service on April 18!  We are now preparing for the arrival of our eggs/chicks and for our 
Early Childhood Celebration on May 15.
In music class, we are learning chick poems, songs and dances.  Chicken Dance anyone?!

Here are the Nursery students working on the Chick Song  which describes how the children will receive the eggs and care for the chicks. 


Music Together At Home

On April 16 we hosted our last Family Music Event of the school year.  A fun time was had by all.

Below are some pictures of our making Music Together®.

Week of April 8







Our PreK and Nursery Music Makers

Prayer Service Preparation

Our PreK and Nursery students have the unique opportunity to lead the entire school community in a prayer service on Holy Thursday morning, April 18 at 8:15 a.m.  There are not many schools that provide opportunities for their youngest students to lead the school community.  This is a point of distinction for Holy Child Academy.  We pride ourselves on giving students leadership opportunities from a young age.  Public speaking and leading a group are not so scary when you have been doing it since the time you were three years old!
This week our PreK and Nursery students have been working very hard to prepare for this prayer service. The children have been sharing their music classes in order to learn and rehearse the two songs they will be singing for the prayer service.  They are enjoying the opportunity to sing together in class and during prayer service rehearsals.  Here's a sneak peek of our song, Signs of New Life.  We are a work in progress. We hope you can join us on Holy Thursday to pray with us and see the result of all our preparation. 


Music Together At Home

In the weeks following Easter, the Nursery class will be wrapping up our Music Together Drum Collection. We have had lots of fun with it and the music does not have to stop.  My hope is that you will continue to have fun making music with the Drum and Fiddle collections at home. 

Our final Family Music Making Event of the year is scheduled for next week, Tuesday, April 16 at 3:30 p.m. The Evite has been sent and we pleased many of you can attend.  If you have not replied, there still time to join in the fun.  For those of you attending, an email will be sent early next week with a few details about the event.
