A big thank you goes out to the staff and students of Elsipogtog School for making the Kent County Chapter of the Council of Canadians' first Earth Day Student Art Show such a success. We had 160 entries and, due to the support of the staff, a large number of these came from Elsipogtog School. The council is so encouraged by this that we will, most likely, try to make it an annual event.
School Bingo on the 26th. Tickets were sent home Friday the 21st. The school is raising money to purchase 2 bbq's and a popcorn machine. Safe and successful selling this weekend kids.
As an extension to Nutrition month in March, Elsipogtog School is continuing the Healthy Snack Challenge from now until the end of the school year. Each day students who eat a fruit or vegetable during their snack time will be entered in the weekly draw.
