On Friday, November 5th, 2021, students in Mrs. Mahler鈥檚 Kindergarten class at visited Mr. Karniej鈥檚 Grade 9 Integrated Technologies students at to thank them for building a 鈥榤uddy kitchen鈥� for their outdoor classroom!
The muddy kitchen allows students at St. Christopher to engage in imaginative play to experiment, work together and grow their problem solving and inquiry skills. Using the muddy kitchen, Kindergarten students create bakeries and restaurants, where they create 鈥榝ood鈥� for their customers, or use the kitchen to create 鈥榩otions鈥� or pots full of nutritious 鈥榮oups鈥�.
鈥淢y Kindergarten friends were so impressed with the ‘big kids’ being so kind and taking the time to make them spoons and other things to go with the 鈥榤uddy kitchen鈥�,鈥� said Mrs. Mahler.
鈥淲e often talk about our Catholic School Graduate Expectations and taking the child from elementary through to secondary, and today we saw the evidence of those expectations being met; both as a collaborative contributor and a caring family member.鈥�
Thank you to Mr. Karniej鈥檚 students for their kindness towards our little learners, and a huge shoutout to all three Kindergarten classes at St. Christopher for demonstrating their thanks and gratitude!
