Final Assembly

The the final assembly on the last year of school, academic awards and Panthers awards were handed out to Clairlea students. Congratulations to all the winners for their hard work! I'm not sure exactly what a Panthers award is, but it seems to be for the one girl and one boy in each class who exhibited all-round awesomeness throughout the year.

There was a very impressive circus performance from one of the classes, and the teachers surprised the kids with a fantastic flash mob performance. I caught it on video...


It was a great way to end the school year. Happy summer, everyone!
