Field Trip

Due to the Easter Holiday, Spring Craft Day and many people administering their standardized tests, we will not be having a March fieldtrip.

Spring Craft Day

Craft Day is almost upon us again. The date and location is tentative at this time, but we will announce it very soon. Get your crafts ready to work with the children. They can be related to Easter, spring, or anything just fun! We will craft the morning away. Remember ladies, the idea is easy and inexpensive. The kids just love to craft! We would also love to come up with one craft that is more complicated for the teenagers to do. This could be something that could be given to the residents at the nursing home. Bring your family's picnic lunch and a snack to share. If you would plan on participating, please email Sharon at puryearzoo5@aol.com. If you have any questions about this event, need help finding a craft or have a special craft that the teens could do, please email or call at 777-5349.

CHECC Science Fair

The first CHECC Science Fair will be held Friday, March 22 from 7 - 9. The location is tentatively set for Countryside Presbyterian Church in Cameron. The science fair will be exhibition only - there will be no judges or placements given. The projects can be anything science related, including experiments, demonstrations or collections (leaves, rocks, etc.). We want this to be an opportunity for the students to share their learning with others, without the pressure of a competition. Please contact either Debbie Jackson, 498-2452, or Bonnie Williams, 775-5975 if you would like to participate or if you have any questions.
