KEC’s English department collectively made a decision to celebrate the last week of Semester One indulging with treats Monday through Thursday. To start the week, we brought our favourite pieces of chocolate. One teacher arranged the chocolate into several bowls which included the tastiest chocolate to the re gifted. Clearly, the Ghirardelli milk chocolate caramel squares was rated tops over the Icy Squares, Aero bars, or the handful of M&M’s. This day created many laughs as to which chocolate each of us brought in.
Tuesday welcomed us with many flavoured bags of chips and dips. We shared jokes around the dips and this craziness kept us engaged for the next two days while we marked exams and created report card comments.
Thursday was a celebration of three birthdays in our department and saying farewell to one term staff member. Everyone stepped up the quantity and quality of the treats which included pizza slices, brownies drizzled with salted caramel, chocolate chip cookies, butter tarts, fresh fruit platter, and of course, chocolate dipped cherries.
As a result, all of us appreciated the silliness that each of us brought to the table.
