Beach Christmas Tree

Help Decorate the Sunflower School Christmas Tree

Our tree is bare!!


We need your help to decorate our school Christmas tree with our Beach theme. Students may bring any themed ornament to school December 2nd to help decorate our school tree. The ornaments can be purchased or made but should be beach themed. They could be palm trees, starfish, surfboards, etc. Anything that is within the theme will work. Students will be invited to hang their ornament on the tree with Mrs. Wokutch. Be sure to put your name on your ornament so that we can return it to you.


We are also looking for an amazing tree skirt to go with our theme. If you have something that might work, we would love to borrow it for the holiday season.


There are some sample ornaments below. We look forward to seeing all of the fun ornaments the students bring.
