CREATURE TEACHER
Our recent Creature Teacher PTA assembly was an unforgettable event that left a lasting impression on the entire school community! From the moment our special guest arrived, students were completely captivated by the array of fascinating creatures. The hands-on experience with some truly eerie crawlers provided an exhilarating adventure for the kids. They couldn’t contain their excitement—some were even a little too eager to wrap their hands around the snake! This engaging and educational experience truly brought learning to life in the most captivating way imaginable. A heartfelt thank you to Creature Teacher for orchestrating such a magical and memorable day filled with wonder and discovery!

Their remarkable hard work, boundless passion, and stunning artistic vision have left us all utterly inspired!
