Community Time Service Project

The students gathered in their family groups to make decorative Christmas placemats that will be delivered to those receiving Meals on Wheels. The torn paper art allowed even the youngest students to participate.

















Pen Pal Cards

Our pen pals celebrated the Sacrament of Reconciliation, so along with our prayers for them,
we sent cards offering them our good wishes and congratulations.



Recess Fun on a Snowy Day
Although it was only snow flurries that fell, it was enough to fill the air with lots of excitement as the student did their best to catch snowflakes.

Science: Simple Machines In science class the students have been learning about the six types of simple machines: screw, lever, inclined plane, wedge, wheel and axle, and pulley.
