Canterbury Woods Weekly Happenings

Art

Art Students Busy Creating 

Students in art are wrapping up the year with a variety of projects! Many grade levels are working in fiber arts, learning stitching, weaving, and two perennial favorites: kumihimo braiding and coil basket-making. We have even taken advantage of the beautiful weather and brought our work outside for some sunshine. Animals have taken over the art room as first graders finish up sculptures that connect with their classroom curriculum, soon to be displayed in the CWES library “museum”!


Volleyball

Staff vs. 6th Graders Volleyball Game is Thursday

All classes are welcome. The temperature is expected to be in the 80’s so please dress your student comfortably and please make sure that they bring a water bottle to stay hydrated.

Sixth grade, please wear your 6th t-shirts to show support for sixth grade!

Staff and students represent….wear your green CWES shirts to show support

We will be having a lot of activity centers at each session, so we will need many parent volunteers!  We are very short on volunteers for Grades 4-6 Field Day, with 14 slots still available.  We would LOVE your help!  Think warm and dry weather and get ready to join us for the fun!

Thanks!
