Folk Dance Festival

Despite the rain we received on the long weekend, the Folk Dance Festival was a go at Centennial Park. What a perfect day to be outside dancing in the park. It was great to have parents come out to watch our moves and to participate in some dances. We appreciate all the help Mrs. Rand and Ms. Knoll provided to teach us the dances.

Wow, it was pretty amazing to see so many schools participating in this event. Over the next two days there will be around 3 000 students dancing in the park. Thanks to everyone for moving and grooving to some fun songs. It was a first time experience for the Grade 1s and they did a super job. Keep dancing. . . anytime, anywhere!
