Students and staff members at Community Hills Early Learning Center (CHELC), 85 Irvine Turner Boulevard, Newark, celebrated the Week of the Young Child from April 4 to 8. Themes included Music Monday, Tasty Tuesday and Work Together Wednesday. Students and staff members finished the week with a parade around the center and fun activities in the parking lot. The Week of the Young Child, established in 1971, is an annual celebration sponsored by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. The purpose is to focus public attention on the needs of young children and their families and to recognize the early childhood programs and services that meet those needs.
