(4.) 6th Grade Class Tradition: “Home is where the heart is.”
Children need a place to feel safe, loved and supported. This stunning, rustic birdhouse symbolizes the bond between our 6th grade class with each other and their beloved school. St. Perpetua has offered a supportive and nurturing home for our 6th graders for many years and now the students want to share that with you.
This year’s 6th grade class tradition is a special, one-time piece that you don’t want to pass up. A beautiful, handcrafted Birdhouse, features each student's signature engraved throughout its unique design, and the word “ENERGETIC". This special word was chosen by the 6th grade class to adorn the birdhouse as it describes their powerful and positive spirit within each of our students. Each school day they come together emotionally, spiritually and whole-heartedly to grow and learn from one another.
Special thanks to Ana Maria Berry and Staci Kramer for your time and help with the project, our 6th grade homeroom teacher, Mrs. Hicks, and our 6th grade class for their support!
