Nursery School and After School Care

Our Nursery School ministry has been actively caring for the children of Glenside since 1965!

St. Paul’s Nursery School offers classes, lunch bunch and extended care /after-school care for 2-yr-olds, 3-yr-olds, 4-yr-olds, and pre-K. The nursery school’s regular day runs from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Extended care is available until 5:00 p.m. for nursery school children. Students enjoy monthly music classes & gym classes, and a chapel visit with Pastor Sonntag. Daily activities include morning greeting/circle time, free play, arts & crafts, gross motor time outside or in our large Fellowship Hall, snacks, and age-appropriate, educational opportunities. St. Paul’s students also have an opportunity to participate in our Afternoon Adventure classes that include Krafty Kids, Science and Fun and Games. Each year St. Paul’s invites special visitors that provide unique experiences for our children. Recent highlights include Briar Bush animals and musical programs. Of course, each year there are many opportunities for celebrations in the classroom.

We invite all St. Paul’s Nursery School students and their families to worship with us on Sunday mornings during our regular worship times at 8:00 and 10:30 a.m. It is not too late to join our Sunday School Classes, which meet at 9:15 a.m (check church office for summer schedule). For complete Sunday School information, contact the Church Office at 215-884-3005.

For 4-year-olds through 1st graders, have them join our Cherub choir under the direction of Music Director, Rae Ann Anderson on Thursday afternoons from 5:30 to 6:00 pm. For 2nd through 6th grades, join Mrs. Anderson on Thursdays from 6 to 6:45 pm. The kids have a lot of fun, sing the first Sunday of the month at the 10:30 service, and learn great choral music skills. For more information, contact Ms Anderson.
