Wishtree Mural
When you visit for Arts Night, be sure to check out the beautiful mural in our front hallway. The OSOB Committee gave each class a paper with inspiration to paint a section of the Wishtree. The team put all the finished pieces together to create this mural. There are so many details with clues and characters from the book!
Don't forget to keep up with your reading and optional activities. You can find read alouds on our school website under the activities tab.
