It was great to see the community participating in the students day to day activities. Something as small as popping in to have lunch with them really brought so much joy to not only the community members but the students as well.We were able to offer our students the sweetest, juiciest mandarin oranges as a healthy snack thanks to the Hannaford card provided by WinterKids!

Reflections
This week was full of fun activities thanks to the inches and inches of snow that arrived this week. We were blessed to have one of our board members join us for a presentation with the conservation organization he works with to talk about local winter activities scheduled locally for families to participate in. We also had the opportunity to be photographed by drone by Ryan at Drone’s Eye View Inc. He put together an amazing video which he has shared far and wide promoting WinterKids and the fun our school has in the winter months. It was a great week!!!
