What did they all have in common?
They were all winners at Shallowford Falls last year!
What fantastic artists we have at our school!
Each year, the PTA Reflections
Program challenges students to create
art inspired by a specific theme.
Themes are selected from hundreds of
ideas submitted by students to the PTA
Reflections Program Theme Search.
This year’s theme…
A magic moment is a short period of time which is
very special, especially because something happens
that makes you very happy.
What moments in your life have been magic moments?
What kinds of things could make a magic moment for you?
Have you ever seen someone else have a magic
moment?
