 Afternoon Tea on Fridays: We believe that experiencing activities that promote social graces brings confidence to children. One way we do this is to serve Afternoon Tea in colorful teapots every Friday. The children become comfortable while learning etiquette based on kindness, consideration, and unselfishness. Come join us for this lovely time of happy relaxation and conversation.Holiday Festivities: At Rainbow Chimes, we celebrate the special events that mark the special times of our lives, such as the birth of a sibling. We also celebrate holidays from many cultures, by preparing foods and utilizing colors, songs, and stories in the classroom. Birthday Celebrations with Books: Children gain tremendous enjoyment when they create happiness for others on their special day. First, we provide all the makings for a decorated birthday cake or cupcakes, which the children will make together for their celebrated friend. Then, we ask that you donate a book in your child’s name (from a suggested list) to the class or Center Library. We will affix a special nameplate to the front inside cover, inscribed with your child’s name and picture. These books become very special to the children. Extracurricular Activities: Through various other community organizations, RCI occasionally offers families additional on-site enrichment activities such as gymnastics, dance, or karate for an extra fee. Enrollment is limited. Portfolios: Folders containing samples of children’s work depict what they’ve done as individual learners and with their peers. This evidence of educational initiative includes chronological documentation of children’s stages of learning, anecdotal records, and assessments of progress and achievements. |
