Pet Blessing and Safety Town

     This past Tuesday the whole school celebrated the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi.  Students were able to bring in their stuffed animals to get blessed.  They were so excited to show off their animals.

    The students also got to go to Safety Town at the HIP.  While there they listened to a police officer about stranger danger.  Heard a story about when to dial 911 from a 911 dispatcher.  Students then went outside to learn how to get out if there is a fire in their house and about stop, drop, and roll from the firemen.  It was then time for students to meet Eddie the Eagle and learn a song about what to do if they found a gun (stop, don't touch, leave the area, tell an adult).  The students ended their time at Safety Town learning how to cross the street.  Overall it was a lot of fun for the kids.
