Today we celebrated the Grand Opening of Angie’s Home in Early Childhood! 🏡 Angie's Home is a practical life classroom that celebrates one of the cornerstones of Maria Montessori's teachings. For adults, "practical life" activities can seem routine, but to a child, these are new exciting tasks that teach them new skills. Montessori practical life activities hold an inherent dignity of teaching a child to do for oneself. 🪴🔨 Ursuline's Angie's Home is a classroom space where students engage in building and design in the workshop, culinary, gardening and folding, organizing and ironing in the laundry area. This space was made possible by generous donations from Paul and Linda McConnell and Delaware Orthopaedic Specialists. #AngiesHome #UAEarlyChildhood #Montessori

Celebrating World Kindness Day today in our Lower School with kind words, songs, shirts, books, art, and more! In library classes, Early Childhood and 1st grade read a Spot of Kindness and added a spot to their hands for kindness reminders! Montessori sampled Kind Bars for snack, learned about being a bucket filler, and discussed what it means to be kind. They enjoyed making clay kindness hearts that they will share with their friends. #worldkindnessday #bekind #spreadkindness #bucketfiller

Congratulations to three Ursuline seniors who signed their National Letter of Intent today! Katherine Lange - Basketball, DII Goldey-Beacom College C.C. DeCaro - Rider University, DI Volleyball Ellie Johnson - Swimming, DI Lehigh University #SigningDay #UAClassof2025 #UARaiders @UARaiders

Thank you to all our Raiders for contributing to last month’s sock drive for the Stockings for Soldiers Organization. As a whole, we collected over 1200 pairs of socks for soldiers who are overseas for the holiday. Congratulations to our Caps House for collecting the most socks and winning the Socktober challenge. If you’re looking for a feel-good holiday act of service, the Stockings for Soldiers Organization is always looking for volunteers to help stuff stockings throughout the month of November. #service #serviam #stockingsforsoldiers #socktober #volunteer

Our Kindergarteners learned about how men and women in our US Military are peacemakers. They listened to a story, recited a Veteran’s Day prayer, made thank you cards for Veterans, and US Flags. They also listened to a story, saw pics of Mr. Sid when he was in the Army, tried on his 82nd Airborne Army jacket, viewed the flag that flew over Afghanistan in his honor, and made tissue paper poppies (they learned why poppies are a symbol for Veterans). The cards and poppies will be delivered to Fr. Gayton at Holy Rosary because he is also a Chaplain in the Navy. God Bless our Veterans!

This morning’s Lower School Family Friday was extra special, as we held our first ever Lower School Student Council Induction. Congratulations to these young leaders for pioneering the way for future Raiders.

Elections continued in the Lower School today with registration cards, ballots, and stickers to proudly display that they voted! While the classes voting for cookies and sweet treats had different winners, it was clear that the majority of kids were in favor of Duck for President. #electionday #lowerschool #vote

Mrs. Sidlowski’s class talked about voting, made predictions, taste-tested to confirm or refute their predictions, stood in line, handed in our "voter registration cards," signed in, and then cast their vote, and received an "I Voted" sticker. They tallied the results, and the Oreo won as the official "Class Cookie"! 🗳️ 🍪

On Friday, we celebrated our first all school mass in our newly renovated gym for All Saints' Day! #insieme
