We had a wonderful Fine Arts Enrichment day at Columbia. Started with a performance by the Centennial Band. Followed by rotations learning dance, music, art, and weaving. Shared a picnic style sack lunch with our classmates. Then ended the day performing the Wednesday dance as a whole school. So much fun learning.
