Winter Carnival
Winter Carnival is a week that is filled with excitement. The children participate in classroom activities together. Snowman making, experimenting with painting on snow and even bringing snow inside to examine individual flakes under the microscope might be some of the many activities the children enjoy. Each class prepares an act for a variety show that is presented to all the kids & teachers. We end the carnival with a special snack of hand-made snowflake cookies & hot chocolate.

Wizard of Oz
Our drama program culminates in the production of our version of The Wizard of Oz which has become a tradition for us. Our graduating class prepares for this production well in advance for this unique experience. They rehearse lines, learn dance routines, wear authentic costumes and get fabulous face painting, all magically coming together at the show. Be prepared to “travel over the rainbow” and go to places you can only dream of as you watch the children perform. It is not to be missed!
