This amazing event took place in the cafeteria and the auditorium and was organized by 3rd grade teachers to improve love for reading and many other things that will help students in the future.

Every year 3rd Grade teachers organize an EBV Slumber Party for all children in 3rd grade.This year it was on November the 20th and everything started at 6pm when children with their parents went to the classroom; then they moved to the area of ​​the new cafeteria and had a dinner together: An exquisite Christmas dish in which everyone had the option of eating lasagna or hallacas. After, the kids with their parents passed to center outside area of the cafeteria for the lighting of the Christmas lights previous words of thanks from one of the teachers. Around 7:45 parents went with their children to the auditorium to accommodate and install, then they had to say bye and leave so the kids could start with the games. Between 8 and 9 pm it was time to tell stories in a special place that was set for fun storytelling! At 9 pm it was time for the Talent Show and improvised dances where many children stopped caring about how they looked and performed.They let out the artist inside! Then from 10 pm to 11 pm was time time to play with their electronic devices and after watch a funny movie. However, sadly, at 1 am it was time to turn off the lights until the new dawn. At 7am everyone waked up and gathered his or her belongings, had breakfast and then waited for their parents.This activity was very exciting for most children, but many others were scared to sleep in school and leave their home.The strategy that the school used was a very good idea according to parents because they said that it “will emotionally prepare children for sleepovers, making them feel emotional independence, empathy and a sense of the community at the school environment with their teachers and school friends.” By the comments made from children in previous years this "Slumber Party" was better than ever!
