Happy First Full Week of School from the CRES PTO!
It has been so fun to see the kids fill the halls of Cumberland Road Elementary with their smiles and eagerness to learn. Thank you to those of you who were able to attend the Ice Cream Social. It is such a fun tradition and we are thrilled to be able to sponsor it each year...And an extra “thank you” to the parents who volunteered at the event. We couldn’t have done it without you!
When you and your kiddos go through backpacks this weekend you should find a new CRES t-shirt. We are so excited to be able to provide all the students, teachers, and staff a t-shirt in their grade-level color as a way to create unity and school spirit. This t-shirt is your child’s to keep and wear throughout the year on any day they’d like, and especially on field trips, during Roadrunner Rally, and on Field Day.

Balance, Roll & Tumble with Fishers Parks & Recreation
Calling all parents, sign your little ones up for a program that helps them spend some of their extra energy! Preschool Tumbling is back and promises to teach your child new tumbling skills while they make new friends and gain independence. Children ages 3 through 6 will explore front/back and no handed rolls, bridges and many other new gymnastic skills. Due to the popularity of this program there are two sessions to choose from:
· Session 1 takes place from 11:05 a.m. to noon at Billericay Park, beginning on September 1 and ending on September 22.
· Session 2 takes place from 11:05 a.m. to noon at Billericay Park beginning on November 3 and ending on November 24.
Fishers Parks & Recreation strives to find diverse ways to aid your child’s development while they’re out having fun. Preschool Tumbling is a drop off program, which means that as your gymnast gains independence learning new skills, you parents are able to enjoy a few moments to yourself! Preschool Tumbling costs $36 for residents and $54 for nonresidents.
Registration can be completed online, so secure a spot on the beam today! As a reminder, children who complete this program can advance into Intermediate Preschool Tumbling to continue their tumbling education! See staff for details upon completion of the Preschool Tumbling program.
