Denbigh United PresbyterianPre Kindergarten

Registration for next school year will begin for Denbigh United

Presbyterian Church families on January 27 and for returning families(from both Denbigh Presbyterian and Second Presbyterian) on February 3.After our Christmas break, be on the look out for more information aboutthe classes offered and registration/tuition fees.

Our Annual Christmas Chapel programs were held on December 18and 19. The children always look forward to singing for their familymembers, and the parents always enjoy seeing the little ones all dressedup, singing, and ringing bells. Thank you to Reverend Dail for reading theChristmas story for us this year. Id also like to thank our music teacher,

Lesley Spitzer, for her hard work with the children and for finding a pianoplayer for this years program! It is always a blessing to have ReverendDail tell the Christmas story rather than play the piano for us as she hasfor the last two years.

The staff of the new Denbigh United Presbyterian Preschool wishesall of you a Merry Christmas and a Joyous New Year!
