Christmas Activities at School

Wow!  What a wonderful bunch of activities we got to experience during this last week of school before Christmas!  Beginning with the fun PTL Breakfast on Saturday, December 12, and ending with our class Christmas party on Friday, December 18 we packed a lot in.


Our great staff pose with Santa on Saturday.


Wednesday morning we read Christmas books to the first graders.  A book about the true beginning of Christmas was selected, and another favorite.  First graders read to us too!










No pictures were taken by me, but the Christmas Service program given by the students on Wednesday night was awesome!  Each helped to tell the true story of Christmas.  The songs and readings went with the theme "Out of Darkness."  The candle light song "I Want to Walk as a Child of the Light" sent us out to the world, with Jesus by our side.  We loved being able to help our parents and other guests worship the newborn Jesus!

Thursday meant our bowling field trip which is the culmination of the bowling unit in p.e.  We all improved our scores, and had a fun time dancing as well!







Friday morning was Christmas craft day.  Students tried new skills and brought home crafts to use at home or as gifts.






And last, but not least, we enjoyed a third grade party to end our day on Friday.  A favorite was participating in the Christmas Trim a Tree relay.  What great decorators they are.  :)  We ended the day singing "Oh Come All Ye Faithful."  That is a memory that will stay with me throughout the Christmas season.  What a privilege to sing together and worship Him!






Joy and God's blessings are wished for you in the year of 2016!
