Special Report - Upcoming Events

The Amazing gRACE Fall Fundraiser

Well, it's almost time for our Fall Fundraiser and this year we are excited to introduce The Amazing gRACE!  Be on the lookout for more information arriving in your child's cubby, emails and signage around the school.  Here are a few details to get you started...

What:  The Amazing gRACE Fall Fundraiser
When: October 1st through October 24th (Dad's Pizza Night!)
How:  While raising money for Covenant Presbyterian Preschool and "gRacing" to make as much money as possible for our sweet school, each class will be taking donations ($25 suggested minimum) in an attempt to win a class Cookie Party! 
Bonus:  The class with the most donated will win the Cookie Party, but in addition, each donation of $25 will automatically be entered in a drawing to win a $250 Spa Package to Milk and Honey.  To clarify, if you donate $25 towards your class' Cookie Party, then you will be entered once for the Spa Package, $50 (entered twice), $75 (entered three times) and so on. 

Thank you in advance for your AMAZING support of our school... let's get our gRACE on!! 

 

HopeFest

The Preschool’s Parent Advisory Team is undertaking its mission project for the year, HopeFest, which will occur on Saturday, Oct. 26 from 9:30am-3:00pm at Reagan High School. 
HopeFest is sharing love in practical ways with the neighborhoods around Reagan High School, including a day of celebration at Reagan on Saturday, October 26th. Churches, community groups and neighbors from all over Austin will be partnering to meet needs and empower families with resources. Last year, thousands of people were helped by HopeFest!
The PAT is helping  gather the items needed: gently used infant and children’s clothes, maternity clothes, children’s books, baby care items (bottles, crib sheets, blankets, towels) and equipment (strollers, cribs, pack and plays); no toys please.   If you have these items, the boxes are on the 2nd and 3rd floor of the Fellowship and Education building.  They will be out until Thursday, Oct. 24th. 
For more information, contact PAT President Kristen McDavid @ kkmcdavid@gmail.com.

Trunk or Treat your way through the Bible!

Wednesday, October 23, 2013
5:30pm-7pm
This annual event has grown to be a real favorite!!!  It is a wonderful way for kids to learn the Bible in a hands-on way as they go from car to car, see each trunk transformed into a Bible story, hear the point of the story and receive a treat that reinforces that story.  Think of Sunday school and tailgating coming together!!
Dinner for a small fee outside at 5:30pm, “10 commandments Croquet”, Pentecost Bouncy House, Noah’s Zoo, and more!
Bring all your friends!
Sign up for a trunk below!  Questions?  Contact Gayla Stuart at gstuart@covenant.org
