LITTLE SABRES PRESCHOOL

Early Childhood Screening The early childhood years from birth to the start of kindergarten are an important time of rapid learning and growth. Screening checks your child’s growth and development for possible health or learning concerns. • Complete between 3 and 4 years of age • Minnesota state statute requires that all children participate in early childhood screening prior to the start of public kindergarten entrance. • Screening is a quick and simple check of your child’s development, height, weight, vision, hearing and immunization records. • Takes an hour to complete and your child’s screening results will be shared with you at the conclusion of the appointment. • Early Childhood Screenings have previously been referred to as Preschool or Kindergarten Screenings. You only need to do one screening!

From Renaissance Florence, to medieval Siena & San Gimignano, the coziness of a Chianti vineyard…the eternal charm of Venice to the cliff hugging fishing villages of Cinque Terre, and the Holy City of Rome…you will experience the best Italy has to offer.

Prague, Salzburg, Munich September/Early October 2017 $1,999 per person for the land package

Beginning or ending in Prague, you’ll spend nine magical days in some of Europe’s historic capitals with Baroque and Art Nouveau architecture, a tumultuous past, and earthy cuisine. We’ll walk through bustling Munich in the Bavarian Alps, take a sobering trip to Dachau concentration camp, then go to Austria to see if the “hills are alive” in quaint Salzburg in the Austrian Alps. This is an unforgettable get-away. All day day trips & land transportation are included.

Are you interested in joining one of our tours? Will your destination be France, Spain, Italy, or the Czech Republic, Germany and Austria? To discover more about each featured location, come and spend an hour with us…no jetlag guaranteed, just a Power Point presentation with a “sneak peek” at what you would experience, should you choose one of these tours. Meet and interact with Arlette, your tour director. She will share photos and answer your questions…Whether curiosity drives you, or a desire to travel, you are welcome to join us. Bring a friend! There is no fee for this event. Registration requested. Thank you!
