Food Drive 2016

At the beginning of December, we held our annual Food Drive for a local food pantry.  Our school community looks forward to this event every year.  Although our students are young - three, four and five year olds - they are able to understand why we are collecting this food. 

As they bring in their food donation and place it on the classroom collection tables, they are happy and excited to be helping others.  

At the end of the week, we gather all of the food collected.

The children place the food around our circle time line to see how much we have collected.

The children are always so happy to see how much we have collected.

This small act of kindness helps so many people and connects us to the larger community outside of our little yellow school. Everyone, no matter how young or old, can make a difference in the lives of others.
