Miss Terry and Miss Kerri's 4 year old classes are saying "Goodbye"
to Hicksville Nursery School, and "Hello!" to Kindergarten!

Both classes were honored to have their families present as they graduated from Miss Kerri and Miss Terry's classes this past week. The children sang songs and put on a show for the happy audience. Their heads were adorned with little white caps, while their faces had HUGE smiles as they each were presented with diplomas on stage by their very proud teachers!
Miss Kerri's and Miss Kelly's students each announced what they wanted to be when they grew up as they received their diplomas, and Miss Terry and Miss Michele's children ran up to give great big "goodbye" hugs as they received theirs. Then the families were treated to snacks and drinks, as everyone mingled and got to say goodbye one last time, as yet another year comes to a close, and another new year begins for the 4 year olds!

Then they are proudly displayed either around the children necks, or in their hands. The children were very proud to share their special poems with their friends and teachers!

Don't Forget To Brush!
Hicksville Nursery School welcomed Miss Lisa from the Smile Station Dental office in Syosset, to show the children how to take care of their teeth. With the help of her buddies, Dudley the Alligator and Polly the Parrot, Miss Lisa was able to show the children how to brush their teeth, what types of food are good for you, (as well as bad foods to avoid eating), and what happens when cavities (or sugar bugs!) get into our mouths. With all the information Miss Lisa taught the children, they will be able to keep their teeth healthy and happy for a long time. Thats perfect for a lot of great big smiles!
