“The Newcomers” MVP’s of the Week!

Meet  our Pre-K Class! They are the youngest bunch here at our Boys & Girls Club. This week they are also our MVP’s. Usually we just chose one MVP but this week, we couldn’t resist picking this whole class. These are not only the youngest kids here, it is also their FIRST time being at the Club. This summer Ms. Blunt, our Pre-K teacher, through using our Brain Gain program, she has been teaching the kids site words, how to add, and just yesterday the learned to count to 100 while doing 100 jumping jacks! IMPRESSIVE! Ms. Blunt loves these little kids as if they were her own. “I love getting to work with this group, each day they improve so much on their skills, from listening to being able to read full sentences!” said Miss. Blunt. We would like to recognize and congratulate our  Pre-K class on being MVP. These little kids really are the future of BGCBulloch. Congrats Pre-K Class, keep jumping to new heights!

Brain Gain: Reading Time!

 

Do you know about our Summer Program called Brain Gain??

We’re excited to launch the Summer Brain Gain program, which is supported by Disney this summer to help kids stay on track for the coming school year! This program offers fun, themed activities for elementary school, middle school and high school students. We’re also offering Summer Brain Gain: Read!, a summer reading program, which is supported by Staples and Boys & Girls Club of America.

School’s Out for Summer!

What could be better than some juicy watermelon on a sunny Statesboro day!?

School is out for the summer! Which means our Summer Program has officially begun! Monday at 7:30a.m. we opened our doors, ready for the kids. This summer will be packed with many different activities ranging from Recreational Fitness to Arts & Crafts to the “surprise” field trips that will take place each Friday. It is nice to have the kids back, their laughter and joy that this program brings them puts smiles on our faces.
We are grateful to those that have supported our Club, were it not for you these kids would be doing nothing productive with their summer. While we have a fun environment set up for the kids, we never forget our number one priority which is their education. During our Summer Program, education is something we keep focus on throughout the entire day. Here at our Club we have 8 learning facilities, two which include computer labs. We also have such a lovely staff, I do not know what we would do without them. Each morning they come in with bright smiling faces, and that is how they continue through their 10 hour work day! Everyone is so encouraging to one another, I am so grateful for the oppurtunity to work at this facility.
