Happy Halloween... and Catholic feast days.. and Movie Night

Hi parents! I'm sure you know that Halloween is this Sunday, and since it's the 5th Sunday of the month it's our BONUS weekend off. Scroll down for the fun work you can do. In the meantime:



Online stuff for YOU: There's a neat webpage about how to embrace Halloween AND your Catholic faith: October is more than Halloween!


Neighborhood stuff for THE FAMILY: The Alliance of the Arts is having an outdoor movie on a big screen! Fri, Nov 5 at 8pm it's "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs". It's free, but they're asking for a $5 donation. For info, call 939-2787.

Next class is November 7. Homework to bring on that day:


PreK- For Oct 24 - read weekly and complete the activity on the back page. For Oct 31, see attached instructions (read through the weekly).


K (Promise) - From Oct 31 weekly: Read page 1 together. Use page 2 to talk about their friends. Have them name off some friends that fit the descriptions on this page. Read the gospel story Luke 19.1-10 from your home bible and have the child retell the story using the pictures on page 3. Finally and most importantly read through page 4 “The Our Father” and practice with your child daily. Any child who can recite the Our Father in class on Nov 7 will get a prize
