C.H. Campbell Elementary School fourth-grade students celebrated the end of their years spent at the school during their Fourth Grade Picnic at Fair Park on June 3.
The students wore colorful tie dye T-shirts provided by the PTA, which were in coordination with the theme of the picnic, “Peace Out Fourth Grade.”
The students were treated to a picnic lunch of Cocca’s Pizza by the PTA and parents who provided watermelon, chips, snacks, desserts and water. Several PTA parent volunteers helped out with the lunch and throughout the day.
“This picnic is for the fourth-graders to celebrate the end of their time at C.H. and their transition to middle school. It’s a fun day and we appreciate all the parents who have helped make it a success for the kids,” said Joanna White, Fourth Grade Picnic co-chair. Erica Fleming also served as co-chair.
The students enjoyed time playing on the park’s playground and playing games, such as soccer, kickball, Frisbee and basketball, organized by Ronie Haurin, C.H. Campbell physical education teacher. A DJ was also at the picnic providing dance party music.
As a special treat, the students were visited by Kona Ice, which gave each student a cup of Hawaiian shaved ice, courtesy of the PTA.
After the picnic, the students returned to the school to watch their fourth-grade memory slide show.
