Choir/Band Trip to Harrisburg Capitol Building and Hershey's Chocolate World



The Junior and Senior Choirs and HCA Band boarded a luxury bus bound for Harrisburg, PA last Friday.  They had the opportunity to sing on the steps of the Harrisburg Capital Rotunda and take a tour of the building with Representative Zabel.  They sang like angels and had a blast walking on the floor of the House of Representatives.  They even got a chance to sit in the seats and press "Yay" or "Nay."  
Getting ready to board the bus!

After lunch, we boarded the bus again and headed to Hershey Chocolate World in Hershey, PA.  Once there, we went on the Chocolate World tour and learned how chocolate is made.  Then we watched the 4D Movie and had fun taste testing and voting on Hershey's dark and light chocolates.  
A great day was had by all.


  

  

A big THANK YOU to Mrs. Antczek who planned and organized our trip and to Ms. Brown and Mr. Norton for preparing the students.  It was also nice for Mrs. Nast, Mr. Srinivasan, and Mr. and Mrs. White to join us on the trip, as well.

Measuring Math

The Golden Pups' math group have been studying how to measure the perimeter and area of squares and rectangles.  Here they are figuring out the perimeter and area of the large mural hanging in the hallway of HCA.


It's so much fun "acting out" math.  Here they are forming lines, shapes, and angles.
