Tucker Room

A New Friend

11/8/2019

0 Comments

 
Yesterday, when we returned from collecting leaves on the front lawn and sidewalk outside of school, we were welcomed back by Kurt, who works for the church and demonstrated the new lights at the last chapel. The children were excited to show Kurt the ginkgo leaves they had found outside. ​
​
This moment of connection stirred something in the children. They remembered the chapel demo and seemed to feel instantly that Kurt was a special friend and part of our school community. They decided we needed to thank him and they rushed to the outdoor classroom to make paintings and drawings for (and of) Kurt. ​​

We also composed a letter that the children decorated and delivered today along with their drawings and paintings. Kurt seemed delighted by their visit and the children shared news of their school day as if they were seeing a dear old friend. It was wonderful to see the children’s gratitude, kindness, and sense of community come together in this event and it will be exciting to see how the relationship develops.
