Sunday School & Nursery

 

Sunday School and Nursery for the 10:00 a.m. Mass are closed for the summer.  We will reopen in October. 

 

Nursery is free and open to 0-2 year olds and Sunday School is open to 3-5 year olds. Sunday School children learn their prayers, make fun arts and crafts, sing songs, and have a yummy snack while their parents are attending Mass.

 

If you would like to help in the Nursery, please contact Heather Hamer at 834-8881.

 

The Sunday School and Nursery Care team needs your help.  If you are interested in assisting, please see the requirements below:

 

  • Diocese guidelines require all adults working with children to be fingerprinted through the police department.

  • You will be helping the Nursery Coordinators.

  • Responsibilities include caring and playing with the children and helping with snacks.

  • Please arrive in the Kindergarten room by 9:00 a.m. on your scheduled day.

  • You will be given a name badge when you help to identify you to the other parents as they drop off their children.

NURSERY PROGRAM


Your children will be staying in the Kindergarten Room of St. Bernard’s School while you participate in the Eucharistic Celebration. Please:

  • Sign your child in on the attendance sheet

  • Place a name tag on your child’s back (so they won’t remove it) until we get to know your child’s name.

  • If needed, bring a diaper and wipes or a stocked diaper bag labeled with your child’s name.

  • If your child needs special attention, please let one of the volunteers assist you.

  • After Mass, return to the Kindergarten room and sign your child out on the attendance sheet.

While you are at Mass:

  • The children play inside with toys or play outside in the Kindergarten play area.

  • Your child will be supervised by the Nursery coordinators, parent volunteers and student helpers.

  • The children are served a snack so please let us know if there are certain things your child cannot eat or drink.

The Nursery is adequately equipped for newborns through 2-1/2 year olds. If you have any questions or concerns please let us know.

 

SUNDAY SCHOOL


During Sunday School, your children will be learning about God’s wonderful world and His love for them. The classes are in the east end of St. Bernard’s School and we ask that you enter through the doors located between the boys and girls restrooms.
Please:

  • Sign your child in on the attendance sheet for their age group (3, 4, or 5 year olds)

  • Parents must accompany each child to their classroom. (Please allow extra time if you have more than one child.)

  • After Mass, sign your child out on the attendance sheet.
