School Spirit!

Our Holiday Sing-A-Long was made extra special as the kids each received Friends Together tee-shirts! Don’t these toddlers look adorable in their festive red shirts? We hope your holiday season is equally merry & bright!

Holiday Toy Drive

Thank you to all of the families who donated to our annual holiday toy drive! We know they are going to brighten the holiday season for many children who may not otherwise have had presents to open.

Officer Tony Visits

Police Officer Tony visited and talked to the children about many important safety issues, including wearing a bike helmet, how to call 911, being careful around strangers, and being safe on the roads. The children asked lots of questions and learned how to keep themselves and their community safe.

Annual Food Drive

Friends Together collected donations of food and non-perishable items for the Our Lady of Fatima food pantry, and the children were so proud to participate in this activity to share with the community.

Halloween Parade

The kids were proud to show off their costumes and sing all of the Halloween songs they’ve learned at our annual Halloween Parade!

Jump Bunch!

Today, Jump Bunch came to share a demonstration of their fun and fast-paced sports program for kids. Everyone had a great time jumping, balancing and kicking.

Jump bunch is offered as an Enrichment class, please contact the office for schedules and enrollment details.

Ice Cream Social

We were thrilled to welcome new students and new staff to a Back to School Ice Cream Social! Everyone enjoyed a cold treat while getting to know each other, meeting their teachers and seeing our freshly updated classrooms.

Today Dr. Chin, DDS from Tiny Sparkles Pediatric Dentistry visited our school. The children learned all about how to care for their teeth, which foods make their teeth strong and what happens when they go to the dentist for the first time. They watched a brief video and really enjoyed their time with Dr. Chin! They will all be bringing a dental “goodie bag” home as well.
