Ghent United Methodist Preschool

We’ve had such a busy and FUN week at GUMP! Last week we celebrated the 100th and 101st day of school in style 👵 👴 and this week, we are having so much fun with a Dr Seuss spirit week for Read Across America! Everyone from the 1’s class to the teachers are joining in and the kids are having a blast!

Applications for new students are now being accepted at our preschool! Our director is also conducting tours.

If you would like your child (age 12 months to PreK) to attend this highly regarded program, go to our Ghent Preschool webpage for details about GUMP. There, you will see the link for the 2026 - 2027 registration form. Reach out today! Don’t wait until classes fill up!

The perfect ending to the perfect Summer 🫶

Well, that’s a wrap on what has been a truly incredible Summer. We shared so many laughs and so much fun together that it’s hard to see it come to an end. This week was amazing and the absolute best way to close out Summer 2025. It was a little bit emotional today saying goodbye to our prek graduates and to some families who won’t be returning to GUMP next year, but remember - once a GUMP kid, always a GUMP kid - so come back and visit us! A HUGE thank you to Ms Ann, Ms Mandy, Ms Hannah, Ms Georgia, Ms Rory, Ms Tarsha and Ms Nadine for all of the time, dedication and extra work that they put in to make the camp experience unforgettable for all of us. Enjoy the time off and we will see you in just a few weeks for school (how?!)!

Part 2! 🏕️

PART 2…because we’re having too much fun to fit in 1 reel 😃🐻🦊🐛⛺️ Can it just be Summer forever?!

Part 1, Final Week of Summer Camp 2025!

Tents, campfires and bears, oh my!! The first couple of days at our final camp session of 2025 (😭) have been filled with everything nature-related and our kids have been having an absolute blast! We’ve grilled, we’ve fished, we’ve crafted and gone on nature walks. We’ve roasted marshmallows over a (fake) fire, we’ve sung campfire songs, we’ve played in tents and looked up at the stars from sleeping bags. Basically, just living our best little Summer lives over here at GUMP! 🔥 🏕️ ✨ 🎣
