Thanksgiving Outreach


If you are able to help with this it will be appreciated.  
For the past couple of years the learning center has provided the items for at least three bags.  This year can we fill five bags ?

Christmas Jubilee for Northwest United Methodist Church


Every year the church collects gifts for families that are struggling. This year is no different. If you are able to help bring cheer to the families outside the church your gifts will truly be appreciated. Gifts can be dropped off in the giant basket located by the chapel.

Good Bye Summer

Good bye summer....Summer for NCLC officially ended August 11th.             Although it ended it was great! 

The staff along with 25 children made many memories. Here are just a few of the activities that we participated in....



We had several days of water play. The children enjoyed using the recently built "water play wall" in addition to the water tables, sprinkler and of course mud. 

"X" marks the spot for our "Treasure Hunt". The children were given maps that led to treasures- necklaces, rings, gold coins and "goodie bags".



             

"Field Day" kept the children busy for the day. There were over 200 water balloons, there was basketball, an obstacle course, corn hole, water relays and more. 

Other activities that made memories include:
          - Ice Cream Sundae making day
          - Popsicle on the playground day
          - Chalk drawing on the pavilion
          - Watercolor painting
          
** Read 100 books for Pizza** To track our progress the children posted post it notes in the hallway. They would count the books to help keep everyone on track.  


**Picnics** The children had lunch outside on Wednesdays during the weeks of VBS.

***Family Picnic*** Oh it was a great success. There was a total of 47 people that attended. The feedback that was received was all positive. Looking forward to next years picnic!


Thank you Families for allowing NCLC to spend the summer with your child/children.

Dear Parents,

Generally, Northwest Children’s Learning Center does not close for weather-related reasons. We make every effort to remain open, knowing that parents depend on us to provide care. When the schools closed recently we were open to serve you and your family.

The safety of our students, parents and staff is always the most important factor in our decision. With the extreme cold predicted later this week, we are taking the necessary step of closing to insure the safety of everyone.

                 Northwest Children’s Learning Center will be
                       CLOSED Thursday  January 31, 2019
                                                                due to the extreme weather conditions. 

The center will plan to be open as usual on Friday February 1, 2019

I feel that it is the best choice to make this decision now to provide you with more time to make alternate plans.

Stay warm and safe!
