On the last day of school of 2016 lots of exciting events took place in the Bluffton elementary school.
One was a Christmas party in Kindergarten with parents, grandparents and great-grandparents invited. It wasn't just any old party. It was a gingerbread house decorating event plus the performance of a winter skit that the students had memorized.
