Christmas Craft Day at St. John’s was Friday, December 15th.
This event was sponsored by the NEST (Nurturing Eagle Support Team) and coordinated by Amy King and Sara Maas. These fabulous leaders transformed the school cafeteria into “Operation Christmas Craft.” The red carpet was rolled out for students to enter the crafting workshop. There were 13 different craft stations to choose from. These stations included a glitter ornament, sleigh, twin ornament, fingerprint ornament, Christmas Tree Ornament, Nativity stained glass centerpiece, Baby Jesus Star ornament, Snowman Soup, Christmas tree centerpiece, Christmas pen, ornament spinner, beaded snowflake, and a snowman candy bar. Students could choose to create as many crafts as they wanted. All the stations were $1.00 and all materials were donated. There were reindeer games to play when students were finished with crafts.
Thank you to all of the volunteers for making this event a success! This was a most joyous event for our students, staff, and volunteers. The $821.75 from Christmas Craft this year will be used by the NEST to support their ongoing activities.
