Carnival Parent Night at Woodstock Elementary!

As you've seen in our blog (or possibly from personal experience!), VHFLC parent nights can take a wide variety of forms. Sometimes staff orchestrate appearances from outside companies (like apple tasting with New Seasons or reptile visits with a local specialist), and other times they don a hat made of balloons and take matters into their own hands! Recently at Woodstock elementary, staff and students decided to plan a carnival-themed afternoon, with teachers Jill and Annie painting faces and Matt (pictured below) making balloon creations. Take a peek to see some of the fun we had that day!

Lewis was very pleased to show teacher Zenna his beautiful rainbow forehead.

Sterling all of a sudden finds himself acting with a distinct air of sophistication while Zafer brainstorms his face paint of choice.

Sydney is very serious about her human-cat transformation and George can hardly contain his excitement at being next in line...
