Curriculum
Corner:
For 2014-2015 school
year, Sugarloaf Kids will be concentrating on Discipleship. In August,
our theme is "Calling All Believers". Your children will learn
what it means to be a disciple and exactly what Jesus calls us to do.
Workshops will include: Art, Cooking, Games, Science and Storytelling.
If your child attends two services, will they have to repeat the lesson? No
we have special 2nd Service Labs ready to go for those children who are here
both hours. Labs include Computer Lab, Missions Lab, Movie Lab and Game
Lab. Why not try it out for the month of August?
Preschool and Nursery
children will use GPS for this coming school year- Grow, Proclaim, Serve by
Cokesbury. This is an age appropriate curriculum that teaches our
youngest members who Jesus is and how much he loves them through games, crafts,
video and other activities.
Offering
and Missions:
During August, our
offering will go to purchase supplies for homeless children for school.
We will be also collecting any school supplies so make sure to pick up a few
extra over the next few weeks. Sugarloaf Kids Care- we are looking to
make a difference LOCALLY this school year.
