Preschool Association

As family members of a child attending CHUM Preschool, we encourage you to get involved with our CHUM Preschool Association. The Preschool Association is a group of parent volunteers that sponsors various activities throughout the year. Meetings are held monthly. Children are welcome at the meetings! Attending Preschool Association meetings is a great way to get to know what is going on in your child’s preschool as well as a wonderful opportunity to meet fellow parents.

The following is a list of some of the activities that the association provides:

• Fall school pictures

• Vision and speech screenings

• Thanksgiving Food Drive

• Christmas Giving Tree

• Teacher Appreciation Breakfast

• Teacher Birthday Celebrations

• Hands-On-Week

• End-of-year Events – ice cream days, special programs for the kids, & gifts for the teachers

• Fun Fair/Online Auction – This is the major fundraising activity of the preschool. This is how the Preschool Association makes the money to do the above projects, as well as buy items the preschool needs. It is a Friday night of fun for the whole family – games, food, online auction items, crafts and prizes. Needless to say, to be successful, it takes many, many volunteers.
