Grade 1 Christmas Market

The Grade Ones put on a fantastic Christmas market this Friday! Students collaborated to make different Christmas crafts such as cards, tree decorations and bookmarks. They were able to sell their items to parents, other grades and even buy a few things themselves! Well done to the Grade Ones for a wonderfully festive and merry activity to end the year!
