Blessing Place

Statement of Goals

Blessing Place is a Christian school affiliated with Normandale Lutheran Church. The teaching staff of the school strives to teach the values of the Christian faith to the children through guided conversation, spontaneous teachable moments, Bible stories and songs. The teachers pray with the children and model Christian attitudes and outlooks in their daily classroom activities. We believe the young child is a special gift from God and it is a privilege to be part of the forming and shaping of these delicate lives.

Blessing Place is devoted to serving children and their parents. The staff seeks to lend a listening ear to parents about the needs of their children.

Blessing Place strives to enhance the child’s development by providing opportunities for children to grow in the following areas:

• Spiritual: We seek to share God’s love for them through the introduction of Biblical themes.
• Physical: We seek to provide a variety of indoor environments equipped to help in the development of the child’s large and small muscle skills.
• Social: We seek to offer each child opportunities to develop a good self image, to respect and care for our surroundings, and develop skills to communicate with each other.
• Emotional: We seek to help develop appropriate emotional outlets for children as they work and play together in a loving environment.
• Cognitive: We seek to expand areas of knowledge by providing developmentally appropriate activities, encouraging language, thinking and problem solving skills, and enjoying creative expression through music and art.

Our school is located on the first level of Normandale Lutheran Church. They are rooms decorated for our littlest friends with tot-sized bathrooms, bright colorful classrooms with lots of windows. We enjoy a large, indoor gym.
