May 18, 2018, Friday

We began our fun Friday with a very special presentation from Mr. Peter Berton.  He gave the children an in-depth lesson on how the old pipe organ works in the Church Sanctuary.  He even put a tv camera up inside the rafters of the organ so the children could watch the flaps move while the organ was being played.  He took out a few of the pipes of various sizes and demonstrated how different the sounds vary with the size of each pipe.  The children even got a turn to play solo on the organ!  Thank you Mr. Berton!  A very special morning indeed.  We continued preparing for our upcoming events!  We made our chicks feel welcome by talking to them and gently petting them.  We went outdoors for recess where there was a delightful display of flower petals on the sidewalk that had fallen from the cherry tree.  What fun to play with the petals, almost like it was snow!
