Pebblecreek Special Events

Pebblecreek hosts several events annually on the school campus:

  • Cultural Awareness Day & Parade of Nations (Spring evening event).  This is a celebration of the different cultures of the world.  Parents are asked to volunteer their time and talents.  Students ages 5 and older will tour "countries" (booths) during the day, get their passports stamped, and learn about local cuisine, customs, crafts and music.  In the evening, all Pebblecreek families are welcome to dress in traditional clothing of their country of heritage and watch the children's delegations in a Parade of Nations and musical evening.  Mrs. Viji Sridhar, lower elementary guide, is the Cultural Awareness Coordinator. 
  • Back to School Night.  Parents are encouraged to visit their child's classroom to see a sampling of the work and materials.
  • Parent Education Workshops.  These short informational sessions, held in the evening, are open to all parents.  Parent Education topics include:  Fine Arts in the Montessori Environment, Staying the Course in Montessori, Physical Education and Development, Positive Discipline, and more.
  • Fall Festival.  Our Halloween party for the children, held during school hours.  Students decorate cookies and pumpkins and play games.
  • Trick or Trunk.  The school's evening Halloween carnival, in the parking lot.  Children trick-or-treat from car trunk to car trunk.  Parents come with clean, decorated trunks and lots of treats.
