News and Reminders
- Kitchen: Please check with Sabrina before taking any dishes or silverware from the kitchen to ensure there are enough for snack and lunch times.
- Photo-Sharing: Photos of your cutie-pies should only be uploaded to any photo-sharing sites (i.e.: Instagram, Shutterfly, etc) on your break or before/after your shift. We love that you're sharing pictures with the parents, but keep in mind that your focus should be on the kiddos when you're in the classroom, not on your phone or tablet. Thank you for your cooperation!
- Core Values: We're developing Core Values for Little Green Tree House and we'd like your input! There will be a basket in the staff lounge next week for you to submit your ideas. Please see the 'Resources' section of the newsletter for more information.

Developing Core Values
As Little Green Tree House grows, we want to establish Core Values that will help translate who we are as a company.
What are core values?
- Traits or qualities that represent our priorities and beliefs
- Essentially, who we are and what we stand for
We believe our Core Values should be developed by the team that lives them daily, you! Please take some time to consider what you believe our Core Values are here at Little Green Tree House. There will be a basket in the staff lounge where you can add your contributions, as we build our company's vision together! Please submit any ideas by Friday, March 20th.
Take a moment to watch the video clip below, which explains Core Values in more detail.
