Dear Little Valley Ward Members,
We are so excited about a new scheduling change that will take place in our Primary this Sunday, October 30! With our Primary pushing 190, and only growing, we feel this change will be very beneficial.
Instead of the the traditional two block Primary and class time, we will have three blocks and are calling this our Tri-Primary schedule. This program is being used by other wards in the stake and has been approved by the 1st Presidency of the Church.
The three rotations are:
1. Singing Time… Primary Room (30 min)
2. Sharing Time … Font Room (30 min)
3. Class Time…. Classrooms (30 min)
There will be two 5-minute breaks between each rotation.
Our ward is just BIG! We feel the smaller numbers in each group will give the children more opportunities to participate during sharing and singing time, as well as increase reverence. This change will also provide the Sunday School with additional rooms.
We appreciate all you do in supporting the Primary.
Love,
The Little Valley Primary Presidency
