We are thrilled to share some exciting news about our sixth grade students' hard work and dedication during the first nine weeks of this school year. In recognition of their exceptional efforts, the staff planned a special "Reward Day" just for them!
On this day, our sixth grade students who have successfully completed all of their assignments and projects for the first nine weeks were treated to a day of fun, games, and entertainment. This Reward Day is our way of acknowledging their commitment to their studies and encouraging them to continue their academic journey with enthusiasm.
Activities included the following:
🤝 Friendship Bracelets: Creative sessions for making friendship bracelets and fostering bonds.
🤾♂️ Dodgeball Tournaments: Exciting dodgeball matches to test agility and teamwork.
🌱 Plant Propagation: A green thumbs-up for learning about plant growth and propagation.
🤖 Robotics: Hands-on experience with robotics to inspire future engineers and inventors.
🎲 Board Games: Strategic fun with various board games that challenge the mind.
💻 Computer Gaming: Interactive computer gaming to explore virtual worlds and strategies.
🎨 Drawing: Artistic expression through drawing and unleashing creativity.
We would like to express our gratitude to all parents and guardians for their support in helping our students excel during the first nine weeks of the school year. Your involvement is greatly appreciated!
