Kindergarteners at BPS created ornaments from recycled book pages. Candy canes, trees, and Santas decorate the tree all handmade by Kindergarteners.
The Banks PTO hosted the annual Santa event at Banks Primary School on Saturday, December 6th from 10:00 - 12:00.
Santa visited with children, photos were taken, and it was a great start to the season. The Santa photos are linked below. Thank you to all the parents who allowed their children to shop for family and friends at the Penguin Shop. The children loved having the ability to shop for parents without them knowing what they were buying for them. It really empowered the children and helped me understand a budget as well.
Thanks for another great year at the Holiday Shop! |
