The Gemma Project/Water Fire

Students in the two units on service had the opportunity to work with Kindergarten and Fourth grade students on a very special project. There were two meetings that occurred last week. The students collaborated in decorating boards that will be used as part of the Water Fire Celebration scheduled for Saturday evening, 10/11/08. The boards, about 50 total, were donated to the lower school by a donor associated with the Gemma Project. This organization is involved with the continued fight against breast cancer.
Students from the service classes worked along students from the lower school in decorating the boards. The decorated boards will join others as they are inflamed as part of the Water Fire event. Putting fire to the boards symbolizes the hope for survival as experienced by many families affected by breast cancer.
The school is invited to attend the event. Activities should start by 6pm.
