Kindergarten

December 11th-15th

 

Hi Kinder Families,

This week, we learned about St. Nicholas! We decorated shoes and put them on our windows, to take part in the tradition of St. Nicholas leaving gifts for people in need. St. Nicholas was full surprises this week, as he left us a chocolate coin on our shoes and sent us our new elf, who we named Chippy, to watch over us and make sure we’re preparing for Jesus’ birth; by being kind and generous to one another!

Here is a photo of our decorated shoes we left for St. Nicholas, with the special treat he left for us!
