Throwback Thursday 09/15/2013

 

09/15/2013

 

This last Sunday was Grandparent’s Day and the Exeter-Milligan First Graders wanted to make sure their grandparents felt appreciated.

 

With a packed cafeteria, the first grade performed several songs and two plays that they had practiced for weeks.

 

The students split into two groups and part of the class performed “The Little Red Hen.”  The students did an excellent job telling the story of all of the work the little red hen despite the laziness of her friends. 

The second group of students performed “Three Billy Goats Gruff,” who encountered a mean troll on their way to greener pastures.

 

After several more songs, the students served their grandparents and guests cookies they had made and drinks.  They also presented their grandparents with some specially made gifts.

 

After giving their grandparents a tour of the classroom, having their picture taken together and a class photo the school day was over for the first graders.

 

Exeter-Milligan Kindergarteners this year were Ronnie Babula, Trevin Ronne, Avery Nichols, Jonah Geiger, Kaydence Haase, Selah Petersen, Brett Kallhoff., Katherine Hale, Kiley Oldehoeft, Logan Krupicka, Alexis Saatman andTucker Svec.

 

Exeter Care Center hosted Jazz on the Green on Wednesday, September 11 on the lawn around the gazebo at the care center.  Tim Javorsky was the jazz artist who presented the entertainment for the event and the care center provided a supper of hotdogs, chips and cookies.  The also brought in a bounce house for the kids to enjoy.  Cooler temperatures made for a beautiful evening to enjoy some great music.

 

Elfreida Jensen was the winner of the quilt raffle that the Exeter Care Center held.  Elfreida also happened to be the one who did all the beautiful embroidery work on the quilt.
