Almost sixty people connected to the Waverly Child Development Center showed up for a Family Night at the Albany Public Library on Monday, December 12. Preschoolers and their families enjoyed a pizza dinner together as well as literacy activities and small-group library tours. The evening closed with a bilingual puppet show of Goldilocks and The Three Bears; a story the young children know well.
The third annual Waverly Elementary School Spirit of Giving event brought community support, volunteers and donations to the school so students could shop for holiday gifts.
Postponed from last week because of inclement weather, today’s event brought students and staff back to school for a fun shopping experience that allowed students to choose presents and wrap them.
“Every student had the opportunity to select holiday gifts for their immediate family members, have their gifts wrapped and ready to take home to give their loved ones,” said school counselor Anne Bailey. “This event is made possible through the generous donations of the Albany community and business partners.”

To end the month of November we had a beautiful rainbow over our school, which got me thinking:
What exactly is a rainbow?
How are rainbows created?
Is it possible to touch a rainbow?
Does everyone see the exact same rainbow?
For answers to these questions and more fun information about rainbows, visit the Science Kids website. You can also find a fun experiment to create your very own rainbow.
