Fun Friday Afternoons

Fun Friday Afternoons happen about 6 times a year from 1:30 until 3:00 . It is an afternoon full of “Centers” run by the parents. It is meant to be a time when parents can share a special interest or talent or hobby or activity with the class in small groups.

Some examples of Fun Friday Centers over the last few years have been as varied as the parents who run them, such as holiday crafts, paper airplanes, God's eyes, rubber stamping cards, planting, insect study, garden art, play- doh sculptures, fishing, baseball cards, tennis, robots, video-making, bird watching, foreign language, engineering, stethoscopes, microscopes, cooking, bookmarks, jump rope making.

The good news is that each center usually has only 5 or 6 children at a time. The challenge is that they are at various stages of completing the project, so the center leader is constantly explaining and re-explaining the process as children come and go.

Fun Fridays are greatly enjoyed by the students! The dates for Fun Friday Afternoons are Oct. 26th, Dec. 7, Feb. 8th, April 4th, and May 30th.
