Recently kindergarten students at Brockbank Elementary spent the day at Cornbelly's Corn Maze at Thanksgiving Point. They enjoyed all the activities learning about farming and agriculture. The kindergartners enjoyed bouncing on the jumping pillows, the "big" rocking chair, and riding on the hay wagon. It was a fun day! Brockbank kindergarten students and their teachers really appreciate the Herbst family for allowing them to come and enjoy the day!

Hello, Brockbank Families!

I hope you were able to have a wonderful Fall Break! It was nice to enjoy the fall weather and spend time with my family!

I have quite a few announcements so I will get started! Our Book Fair is going on this week! Thanks to our PTA for working so hard to bring this fun event to our school!

We are trying to be health conscience and aware of the food we eat. If you plan to send birthday treats or snacks for a whole class activity, please try to make it a healthy snack or even a non-food item. We appreciate your cooperation with this!
