Activity time! 🤩
During activity time, children explore hands-on learning through fun, engaging stations. They get to play with dough, enjoy sensory activities, and participate in creative play that helps build fine motor skills and imagination.

Great ShakeOut Earthquake Drill: The Great ShakeOut is observed annually on October 16, in remembrance of the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. This magnitude 6.9 earthquake resulted in 63 deaths, thousands injured and displaced, and widespread damage to buildings and infrastructure.

The Great ShakeOut is an annual earthquake drill where millions of people practice "Drop, Cover, and Hold On" to prepare for an earthquake. Held every year in October, it is a global event that encourages communities, schools, and individuals to participate in a simultaneous drill to practice safety procedures, review emergency plans, and secure their environments to prevent injuries from falling objects. The goal is to make earthquake preparedness a routine habit so that people can react quickly and safely when a real earthquake occurs.
