INSIDE
2002
Year In Review
Point
Roberts Primary
By Linda
Hughes & Maureen Millar
Four more
seasons of fun and learning with our children, parents and community
members in Point Roberts!
At the end
of 2002, our Winter Celebration at the community center was a
great success. The kids performed two shows, one for the seniors
and one for their families. They entertained us with their songs
and skits, and Santa even paid a visit to brush up on his Ôlist.Õ
Certainly all had lots of fun.
The annual
Easter egg hunt at Lighthouse Park is always a favorite. Over
600 eggs were hidden and retrieved by kids, and even some crows
managed to swoop down and make off with their shiny prizes. Thanks
to all the family puppies who came along and charged away the
rascally crows!
Field day
at the school included ribbons, the press, our firefighters, all
kinds of races, smiles and end of school year celebrations.
The PTO hosted
a Fall Fun Family Fair, which was a night for families to get
together and have some fun playing games, dancing, cake walking
and eating all the fantastic food that was donated by busy family
members!!
We have
also managed to obtain donations and volunteers necessary to paint
hopscotch on the covered sidewalk at school. The kids are very
excited about this new addition to their campus!
The PTO
has also helped organize and implement ÒHowdy Post.Ó Our students
became secret pen pals with some of our local seniors. Our volunteer
postman delivers letters between the children and the seniors.
The kids are having a great time asking questions and trying to
guess the identity of their secret pen pals, from clues provided
in their letters. These secret pen pal identities were revealed
when the students performed their Winter concert at the seniors
luncheon in December.
And this
brings us full circle to the end of the year. We have lots more
events planned in the New Year, and look forward to having new
members join the PTO and join in the fun!!
Call the
school for more information on how you can participate!
