4th Graders Visit Oldest Public Park in America

The 4th Grade class visited Magnolia Plantation on Friday. Magnolia Plantation is listed on the Natural Register of Historic Places and played important roles in the colonial settlement, the Revolutionary War and the Civil War. The glorious day was full of sunshine and fun as our students took the Nature Train and Slavery to Freedom Tour. Upon arrival, students were greeted by beautiful peacocks and able to witness God's abundant beauty as they saw nature in its rarest form. During the four-mile nature train ride, students saw alligators, herons, turtles and egret. It was a special treat to have Pastor Dick as our tour guide as he continued to bring all things back to our Creator, Jesús Christ. The students also learned about the history of the plantation and were able to tour slave cabins that were occupied until the last decade.

Celebrating Grandparent's Day at PCA

One thing's for sure.. PCA loves its grandparents! The PCA Lower School gathered last Thursday to shower our grandparents with love and welcome them into our classrooms. The morning began with a fantastic program in the Worship Center produced by the talented Pam Hall. Sweet, young voices entertained the audience  with a variety of songs.. from an enthusiastic "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" to a worshipful "Thank You Lord" to a delightful "Armed Forces Medley" recognizing servicemen and women from each of the military branches. 

Following the Grandparents Day program, guests were invited to stroll and view the beautiful artwork on display as part of the Junior Palmetto Art Show, and visit individual classrooms for an inside glimpse into daily life at PCA. Thank you to the many people who celebrated with us.. we are truly grateful for our grandparents and their influence on the hearts of our students!
