PLAY! NO SCREENS - NO STRUCTURE- JUST FUN!

On the afternoon of February 12, 2021, St. Agnes School will once again have our annual Global School Play Day to recognize the importance of play in children's lives. This will be our 3rd year participating in this event and is a day that both staff and students have shared their anticipation for. It is a day were we will take a portion of the day and dedicate it to unstructured play opportunities for students to create, interact, have fun and just PLAY! Other than providing safe supervision and taking a few pictures/videos, staff will try try to be invisible and let the kids play and interact. For more information on this initiative parents and students are invited to visit https://www.globalschoolplayday.com/ and also view researcher Peter Gray's TEDx lecture as well at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bg-GEzM7iTk We are open to any creative ideas that families may have that could be incorporated into our classrooms on this day so if you have anything you would like to share please get in touch with your child's teacher.
