Mrs. Claus is coming to town!! ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿคถโœจโ„๏ธ
We had the absolute pleasure of hosting our dearest Mrs. Claus for our last PEAKS class of the season. She started the class by giving participants some pointers on the โ€œtrying to be good listโ€ to ensure they secure their spot on the Nice List by December 25th. Mrs. Claus entertained us with captivating stories from her time traveling, and she had us laughing until our cheeks fell off. We also had a mini photoshoot with her and sent personalized messages from her to the children in our lives.

After class, our fearless leader, Rhonda, led us in a holiday bow-making class. We learned two different bow styles to enhance our gift-wrapping skills this Christmas. ๐ŸŽ

Jack of all trades. Or maybe a John of all instruments ๐ŸŽธ๐ŸŽป๐Ÿช•
Either way we had a blast at the instrument demo and exhibit. We had fun with this very informal style session where we heard about all of the instruments and their stories.

We also launched our Bring Your Own Technology workshop where participants were able to bring their technology and any questions they had. If you have any questions email Nola Chester [email protected]

Please join us next week for our last session of the semester and see if youโ€™re on the naughty or nice list โค๏ธ

Thereโ€™s a little witch in all of us - Practical Magic
๐Ÿง™โ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿช„โœจ
We had a very spooky time learning about the history and lore of the Salem Witch Trials. We got to learn the truth and debunk some lifelong myths of the era. Our costume party was an absolutely success. We had everyone from witches to goblins and cats to cowboys. Everyone who dressed up looked absolutely BOO-tiful ๐Ÿ‘ป
Dr. Heather Welch also did an amazing job of enlightening us of the many facets of the local library. This is also your sign to go to your local library and get a library card!

Join us next week!

Scrub A Dub Dub ๐Ÿงผ๐Ÿซง
We had an absolute BLAST with Mrs. Nancy learning all about the science behind our everyday cleaning products. We were even able to make our own Room Spray and All Purpose Cleaner using the more GREEN swaps we had learned about.

Feel like youโ€™re missing out on the fun? Join us next week for a SPOOKTACULAR Halloween special!

ยกBUEN CAMINO! ๐ŸŒŸ
We had such a wonderful time learning about the Camino de Santiago. Miss Sherry was so engaging in her stories and information about her experience. I think we are all ready to take a flight and start our journey. If you see a gaggle of PEAKS Pals on the Camino soon โ€ฆ donโ€™t be surprised. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›
