  Hundreds of dollars

worth of toys, games, 

gift cards and items requested from the gift list

were picked up this week by the Joshua House.

 

Joshua House staff were amazed at the volume

of donations from this small school.  

 

BPS students learned about giving to others 

by bringing donations and seeing those items donated by others. 

A valuable holiday lesson.

 

Thank you, Families!

Primary classes were treated to a presentation this week about Three Kings Day (January 6th) by Ines's parents, Luis Levy and Crissta Labrecque.  This holiday is celebrated in Luis's home of Puerto Rico and many Latin American countries. 

After hearing the story of the three kings, students enjoyed homemade treats of 'camel's haystacks'.  Thank you, Ines and family.
