The elementary classes created a variety of treasures for Father's Day. The Grades 2/3 made note holders for their fathers by colouring and cutting out small cars and attaching a clothespin to the car. Their dads can use the craft to keep track of important notes.

The Kindergarten and Grade 1 class made, "Cool " cards to present to their dads on Father's Day morning.
