June 13, 2009 - The Scotchtown Avenue Elementary School hosted its 18th Annual Kindergarten Festival on May 15. The families of Goshen’s youngest students filled the bleachers in the Scotchtown Avenue gymnasium to watch the festivities.

The Kindergarten Festival combines physical education with music education. Physical Education Teachers John Mardyniak and Cheryl Gage worked with Music Teachers Martha Diaz and Elizabeth Olivo to create the different activities that the students performed.

Students performed choreographed dances, sang and played musical instruments, demonstrated` different physical activities and worked with parachutes during the Festival. The entire Festival was set to music, including songs such as “Baby Beluga” by Raffi, “Wipe Out” by The Surfaris, and the theme to the movie “Rocky.”
