Busch Gardens
Last Friday, May 20, our 8th-grade class accompanied by Fr. Bill John, Mrs. Mallory, and several parents, traveled to Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, VA. The students were thrilled that Fr. Bill John went with them. They all enjoyed the day having fun on the rides! It was definitely a day to remember!
Middle School Picnic
As the school year comes to an end one of the favorite events for our older students is the middle school picnic. Sadly the weather forced us to change the details but nonetheless, the middle school students shared a day of games, fun, food, and laughter today as they had the chance to unwind and "picnic" in the gym. While not the ideal walk to the park and picnic outside it was still a great opportunity to have fun!
8th Grade Final Walk
Another tradition here at St. Catherine's is the 8th-grade final walk. And again, the weather required us to improvise. Instead of walking outside the school (and being sprayed with silly string and confetti) the other students, teachers, and parents lined the hallway with posters, signs, balloons, and cheers as the 8th-grade students ran through. Their kindergarten classes were very excited to see their 8th-grade buddies exchange small gifts, and of course, they had to get in a little silly string (outside). Congratulations to the graduating class of 2022!
