CELEBRATING TANVEER ♡
Today was a very special day for Tanveer. Today was her graduation from St Andrews Preschool!
Tanveer and her family have been part of our centre community since Tanveer was four years old. Now it is time for her to go to primary school.
At St Andrews Preschool we celebrate this milestone with a special graduation celebration.
We celebrate the child’s birthday and graduation together at mat time. Parents, grandparents and friends are most warmly welcomed to join us.
The teachers share some of the special things about the child and goes through the child’s portfolio, following their preschool journey. We all look at the self-portrait on their very first day and notice how they have changed over their time at preschool. They also compare their handprint now against the size of the one in their portfolio on their first day or preschool.
Finally, the child is presented with their very own children’s bible which has a special messages written on the inside cover from each of the teachers.
Tanveer, we have loved getting to know you.
Some things that we love about you are
We’ve noticed that you enjoy
Tanveer you are very interested in
The character virtues we have seen you develop
Tanveer, this is our prayer for you as you transition to school: We pray that school will be a time of building friendships that will bring you joy and a time of discovering more of your talents. We pray that others will be inspired by your creativity and that you will find even more ways to expand on your creative ideas. Jesus is with you and He loves you Tanveer!
May you continue to know the joy of exploring and being inquisitive. Never forget that you are special and precious.
Tanveer, it was our pleasure to celebrate YOU today!
We are sad to say goodbye to you, but we proudly send you off to your new adventure at school with our love, support and blessing ♡
