Kindergarten students enjoyed celebrating Grinch day. It was good to learn that the Grinch’s heart that was two sizes too small did grow so he had a big loving heart in the end. Fun was had by all. Kindergarten students also enjoyed performing in their Christmas concert on Wednesday, December 10th. All kindergarten classes participated in caroling for the seniors at Heart Haven, Paragon Place, Point West and Heritage House. This was a win-win experience. It is hard to decide who enjoyed it more, the little ones or the seniors. This was a great outing and might become a yearly tradition at SES. Mrs. Riggins donated Christmas oranges to her son’s kindergarten class and taught all the students how to peel a Christmas orange so that it becomes a Christmas elephant. KAD was treated by Mrs. Hawkins and Mrs. Owens who came to help bake gingerbread men. This was a delicious yummy treat.
All of our Christmas concerts are now finished. Gr. 1 and 2 concerts took place last week on Dec. 16 and 17. The students performed songs about a Christmas guard dog, cozy slippers from Grandma, the Slipper Hokie Pokie, Away in a Manger and many others. Mrs. Lynes, the Grade 1 and 2 teachers and the students all worked very hard on these great performances.
Our students all enjoyed their Christmas movie at the Jewel Theatre on Friday Dec. 19. Our K-2 classes watched Brave and our 3-5 classes watched Jack Frost. We would like to thank Sean at Sean’s No Frills for donating the water bottles as well as Mr. and Mrs. Geddes for sponsoring the movie party.
We would like to wish all of our students, parents, and staff a very Merry Christmas and we hope everyone enjoys their holiday break. We will see you all on Jan. 5, 2015.
