Bancroft’s Flower Show

The Bancroft Flower Show in Kennett Square!

 
 
Bancroft Students have been working hard to create unique and beautiful flower paintings. Students were inspired by different artists and carefully looked at shapes and colors that were needed to complete each masterpiece. The generous PTO donated these canvases so each class could collaborate and take pride in their homeroom’s painting.
 
The 16 x 20 canvases will be raffled off and presented at the Liberty Marketplace located at 148 W. State Street in Kennett Square PA.
 
Join us on March 9th for a special evening of Art and School pride! #Bancroftproud

Bancroft students celebrated their 100th day of school on Wednesday, February 9th. First Graders were so excited to enjoy special activities for the 100th day of school from each of the first grade teachers! As the teachers visited each classroom, they brought special activities to celebrate being 100 days smarter! Mrs. Hoernig gave students “$100” bills and they wrote what they would do with that much money. Mrs. Rozsits had students playing and stacking 100 cups with partners and building pictures with 100 shapes. Ms. Evans shared a mystery picture on a 100 chart and had students create monsters decorated with 100 details.
