Food Share is this Thursday, August 18th @ 4pm!
MNCS Nuts + Bolts has rented the St. Peter outdoor pool for MNCS students, staff, and families to enjoy on Friday, July 29 from 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. We know that having students from so many different communities means that kids don't always get a chance to see one another during the summer, so we try to have a fun activity for people in the summer.
What: MNCS Summer Pool Reunion
Where: Roy T. Lindenberg Memorial Outdoor Pool in St. Peter (300 North 4th Street)
When: Friday, July 29th 7 p.m. - 9 p.m.
All MNCS students, staff, and family members can come to enjoy the pool! Bring a treat to share. Your favorite inflatable toys are welcome, too!
Cup Stacking Challenge!
Some MNCS Elementary students yesterday participated in a project which involved teamwork and brainstorming. The challenge: to build the tallest tower possible! Students started with just cups and began stacking them a variety of ways. Then they were given more items such as pencils and tape to re-analyze and adjust their structures. It has been fun for students to continue working collaboratively with each other this summer and to promote creative learning!
Today is the first day of MNCS Summer Enrichment! The theme for our younger students this week is camping. Students started off the day with learning how to assemble a tent & teamwork! This week will incorporate a variety of fun learning components related to camping and students are sure to have a great time!
Food Share tomorrow at 4pm!
For our last town meeting the students had a fun game of Musical Chairs!
The Last Day of School!
As the school year comes to a close, we look back fondly on things learned, friendships made, and look forward to future and summer plans! We want to wish you and your family all the very best this summer! May it be a happy and healthy summer! We are proud of our students and congratulate them on accomplishing a successful school year and to those leaving or moving on to the High School, we wish the very best in your future endeavors.
