Comments:
An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted today from 11:00 - 2:15 pm. There were 57 children present in both buildings. All classes were within ratio. I observed waterplay outdoors, listening to a story; eating lunch and preparing for naptime. I enjoyed listening to a class deciding whether it was appropriate for a princess to wear hiking boots!.
