The First Hybrid RE Class!
What a treat! This past Sunday, 5/23, the 3/4/5 CartUUns class, teachers, and DLRE got to share the first hybrid RE class since the pandemic lockdown began! It was such a joy to get to see some of us in person. Mother Nature kindly cooperated and shared lots of sunshine with us. Four children attended in person and two attended virtually. While we all acknowledged it did feel a little weird for some us to be together in person at first, it wasn’t long before we settled in, did some learning, shared some laughter, and had a lot of fun. A big THANK YOU to terrific teachers John Cornett, Ed Kautz (Sunday’s fabulous lead), and Alexandria Onderdonk-Milne and the Children (and the parents that drove the in-person Children to Waters House!) for making this first hybrid RE experience such a joyful success!
