As a learning experience for social studies, Brockbank second-graders were assigned to do an oral report for their class. They chose either an animal or continent, did research on that animal or place, and then did a report on it. The students did a really good job preparing and giving their reports to the class. Parents and grandparents were invited to come and listen to their student give their report. Some of the students brought live animals to class. It was a great learning experience!

Brockbank students have a lot of talent. Mrs. Brenda Dudley, the art and music technician, held a talent show for students in her classes to showcase their musical or art talent in front of their classmates. It was a lot of fun seeing how talented students are from singing, playing musical instruments, dancing, dramatic readings, to showing art pieces they have painted. All of the students that participated did a great job, it is not always easy to get up in front of your peers and perform!

Brockbank recently held their reward activity for the second grade boys and sixth grade girls for winning the school's penny war. The penny war was a competition where each grade had a girls can and a boys can and students brought in their change to raise "Pennies for Pets". The sixth-grade girls brought in the most money but the second grade boys had the most penny points. Each winning team got to pick one adult to compete in a relay in front of the student body and throw flour balls at. The second grade boys chose Principal Alison Hansen and the sixth grade girls chose Mrs. Alexandra Dedrickson. They were both great sports and it was a fun activity to reward everyone for donating to a good cause. The money earned from the "penny war" was given to the South Valley Animal Shelter to help with the cost of taking care of animals until they can be adopted.
