Niton Central News

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We had a wonderful time at our Christmas Craft Day on Tuesday! Students went home with some wonderful creations. We also had free pizza on Thursday, thank you to Jim Robinson Contracting for their donation. Friday was our Polar Express Day where students watched the movie in the gym and had popcorn, hot chocolate, and other goodies! Thank you to the awesome parent volunteers who came in to set this up and to NCFS for paying for it!

Thank you to everyone for a great last week before the break. We are on break from December 23rd until January 7th, with school resuming on January 8th. This will be the last Niton Central News until January 12th. Upcoming dates for January are listed below as well as are on our school website and calendar.

From all of us at Niton Central School, we wish you and your family a very merry and safe Christmas Break. Please enjoy your time with family and friends and we look forward to seeing everyone in the new year.

Have a wonderful Christmas and break,

Bailey Benson

The whole school participated in an afternoon of Christmas crafting on Wednesday. Each student selected the crafts they wanted to complete and then were placed in cross-graded groups for the afternoon. We had crafts like nail art, fabric wreaths, sock fellas, snow globes, tree cookie ornament paintings and more! Thank you to all our parent volunteers who came in that day to help us craft! It was great to see all of our student's creations!

The 8/9 class visited the K/1s to help them make cookies this week. They had a great time helping their buddies out and everyone created some delicious cookies to try.

On Wednesday, our Kindergarten to grade five students used their amazing decorating skills on some cookies! Students had a blast creating different designs on their cookies and working with their buddies, and of course sampling the final products. A big thank you to Keli Setzer and Carol Tymchuk who baked the cookies, prepped the icing and sprinkles, and put everything into cookie kits for our students! It was a blast!

Mr. Stoyles used our awesome 3D Printer to print a bunch of ornaments for our students to paint this week! Hopefully you have seen them coming home. Our students took their time painting their ornaments and making sure they looked just right!

If you are able to volunteer in the concession for after school basketball games, please let the office know. We are in need of more people or we may not be able to run a concession during games.
