barbecue

Perfect for outdoor events! Let’s introduce barbecues.
A barbecue involves starting a fire outdoors using firewood or charcoal and then grilling or smoking meat, vegetables, seafood, and more over that fire.
How about incorporating a barbecue into an overnight event or a field trip? If you hold it in summer, be mindful of the heat and strong sunlight to prevent heatstroke.
Let the kids help with the cooking, and have a great time together!
In conclusion
Events and activities held by the PTA are a great opportunity to get to know people from grades and classes you don’t usually interact with.
Let’s think together with the children and, imagining the smiles of the participants, work as a team to create a wonderful event! The memories made there will surely become treasures that stay in your heart.
