Pictures from our last week of school

Dear Families,
We had a fantastic last week of school together with lots of fun and engaging activities. Here are some pictures for you and your child to look through. Don't forget to stay in touch on our Kidblog over the summer. There are already many new posts for you to read!

The students joined a special library class, learning about QR codes. We used ipads and searched for books using QR codes. When we found the books, we found another QR code to scan. It was like a scavanger hunt using technology!

The students at ABS filled the Buzzy jar again so we had a surprise visit from Champ again! We were so happy to see our friend again. Let's make next school year safe, kind and responsible too!

We also celebrated our successes by having special movement activities on Team Harmony. The students signed up for workshops and could visit classrooms to dance, sing and play group games.

On Team Harmony, we like to end the school year with a special "graduation" ceremony for the 2nd graders, who will now leave us for WCS and 3rd grade. Our current 1st graders participate in a surprise art project for the 2nd graders and we present these in our Kiva. This is a very nice tradition and filled with pride among all the students.

At ABS we also end the school year with a field-day at WCS. This Fun Day is filled with many different activities and games. We were very lucky that it did not rain this year. We were so worried because the sky was dark, but as soon as the buses pulled into WCS, the sun came out and stayed out for most of the day!
