The First- Annual Magical Moon Jamboree
and the moon week | by Luz
On Friday, November 20th, Science Subject Leaders from the four elementary schools will present the first-annual “Magical Moon Jamboree” at the Nature Trail at Symmes. This free family event is open to all Kindergarten students in the district. Activities will include viewing the moon through telescopes, taking a night hike on the trail and listening to a moon story under the stars in the Reading Garden.

The party will begin at 6:30 p.m. on the playground of Symmes Elementary and will last approximately one hour.  Participants are asked to bring flashlights for the night hike, wear comfortable shoes and all children must be supervised by a family member at all times.

A big “Thank you” to the Sycamore High School Astronomy students and their teacher, Mr. Chad Husting, for helping with the telescopes. And thank you to Symmes Elementary for hosting this fun event!
