Students, staff, and parents took a stroll outside the Van Holten Primary School on the morning of Tuesday, October 7. The weather cooperated when the walkers participated in the Walk-A-Thon that was sponsored by the Van Holten PTO during the Week of Respect.
The Jewish Community Center’s first Kids Night Out of the school year will run from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the building that is located at 775 Talamini Road in Bridgewater.
According to the officials at the Jewish Community Center, students are urged to “ bring their camp and school friends together for an unforgettable evening packed with swimming, sports, pizza dinner and dessert, and non-stop fun! “
The officials went on to explain this entertaining evening that is open for students aged 5 to 11.
“Our supervised program will have everyone splashing in the pool, shooting hoops and playing games in the gym, and filling up on delicious pizza and sweet treats. Whether you're diving into the pool or diving into dessert, this is the perfect way to reconnect after the summer and celebrate a fantastic school year ahead!”
