Superhero Night!

Superhero Night – November 14

Attention all HDC students, parents and/or guardians! Over the past few weeks, the School Council and teachers have been planning a SuperHero night for our students. We have an amazing and fun evening planned for you and the SuperHero in your life, where you and your SuperHero can spend time together in our school enjoying activities and making projects together.  Not all SuperHeros wear capes and this is your chance to enjoy quality time connecting with your own personal SuperHero - a special adult in your life that could be a parent/grandparent, older sibling, aunt/uncle or family friend!  

When: Thursday, November 14, 2019 – 5:30pm – 8:15pm

How: The sign up for this event is live today for all students and spaces are limited, so don’t delay.
