Seaside Beaches May Festival

Our Annual May Festival was held on Saturday, May 4th from 11am-2pm at the Beach Campus.
(Our friends at San Jose will hold their May Festival on Sunday, May 19th from 3-6pm on their campus.)
 Our May Festival was an afternoon of family fun,- including Maypole performances, craft booths, food trucks, vendors, music, puppet show, live music, storytelling, photo booth, rock walk and more. Parents and family members were able able to view their children’s artwork as well as visit the Book Fair.  All students in all grades (PreK-7th) and their families were invited to join us.
 Our Room Parents coordinated supplies and staffing of the craft booths for the festival.

​ 
What is May Day and the Maypole?
May Day is traditionally celebrated in the northern hemisphere as a return of warm weather and new growth.  The May Pole symbolizes the tree of life and the growth of spring vegetation. The May Pole Dance is a very joyful experience, where children from most grade levels take turns doing the dance.  As the children mature, the patterns of the dance get more complicated. 
Throughout history, cultures have celebrated the seasons and patterns of nature.  The purpose of celebrating the seasons helps to bring the school together as a community and by honoring the passage of the seasons through art, music, and story, our connection to nature and to one another is strengthened.
