This afternoon, our PYP assembly focused on Autism Awareness month 🌟 Our students reflected in their cross-grade houses on the different ways they feel included, safe, calm and relaxed. Students could understand that all of us have different needs ❤️
We also celebrated house points 🎉
To end, Student Council announced the plan for next week’s Spirit Week! 🌟
We wish our community a wonderful weekend! ☺️
