Author's Tea

















Author's tea is the culmination of the student's writing, poetry and technology projects . We had a high attendance this year of 38 relatives and everyone had an opportunity to highlight their animal presentations on the Touch It boards. Thank you to all that attended and made this a truly special day for our students.
