The ABC’s are more than a song to sing.
At HELM PreK, children experience the alphabet — exploring letter shapes, practicing sounds, and learning to write using playful, hands‑on media.

This photo shows students writing letters in shaving cream!
Messy hands, big smiles, and meaningful learning.
This tactile practice strengthens fine‑motor skills, builds letter recognition, and helps little learners feel confident as writers.

💛 Our school year is underway, and we’re loving every moment with our students.
We are still accepting new enrollments — reach out if you’d like your child to join our growing HELM family.

Such Happy Helpers!

Each day, students at the HELM PreK are given helper jobs for the day. We have Calendar Helpers, Materials Helpers, Snack Helpers and more. One of the favorite jobs is Table Helper, and when a friend welcomes help, there are many friends to come to her side.

Preschool students have an innate eagerness to help and they can easily show us adults how to "Serve God with gladness" Ps 100: 2a

As part of the regular HELM PreK schedule, Senior Pastor Curtis Banker leads the students in a weekly Chapel Time. Pastor Curtis reads a Bible Story, shares some favorite classic songs and leads the students in prayer.

Pastor Curtis manages to complete all of the above with a preschool attention span in mind! Well done, Pastor, we thank you and look forward to your visits.

"Play is really the work of childhood" - Mr. Fred Rogers

We work hard at the HELM PreK-- work hard at PLAYing.

Every day in the HELM morning class we make plenty of time for child directed play. We have an amazing space full of opportunities with dramatic play. The children work cooperatively or in parallel with their friends and the items around them.

You can almost hear the brain synapses --the tiny connections between brain cells --forming every second as each student directs his or her own play.

This week the HELM PreK students practiced holding and using scissors correctly. We also talked about The 7 Days of Creation and the Love of Jesus.

At the HELM PreK, we address academic standards set by the State of Indiana for preschoolers while also exploring Biblical truths.

Do you know a family looking for a preschool program? The HELM PreK morning class has some spots still available. It's not too late to enroll.

🎶🎵"If you like to talk to tomatoes..."
Do we have a new student at HELM PreK or did Bob the Tomato just come to visit Red Day?

Wait...that's not Bob 🍅😉. That's our silly friend dressed up for Red Day.

Red Day was a hit. We all had fun wearing red and listening to Mrs. Liz read "Red, Red, Red" by Valeri Gorbechev. Do you know what red, red, red turtle was looking for? We do, and it is a beautiful part God's creation.

Last week, in learning and sharing about emotions, we took some time to listen to classical music and paint, thinking about how music and color can help us name and manage our feelings.

We also talked about how God wants to hear how we're feeling, and that we can pray when we are happy, sad, worried, excited -- any time!
