April 2019

Over 75 students from elementary schools in Springville and Mapleton competed in a first ever Math Olympiad tournament with several schools held at Hobble Creek. A HUGE thanks to Brian Boring for organizing this fun event!

Nebo School District held a keyboarding competition. Several Hobble Creek Students did very well! Congratulations to AJ Darby who got 5th place overall in the district!

Out trip was to Harward Farms in Springville. Every year they host  the Farm Field Day sponsored by Utah State Extension Agriculture in the Classroom. They present several different activity stations relating to agriculture and the Utah State Curriculum for second grade. Volunteers from the local Future Farmers of America and local Farmers are the presenters.

The Utah Shakespeare Festival is once again hitting the road with its Shakespeare-in-the-Schools touring production – this year performing one of the world’s first psychological thrillers, William Shakespeare’s Macbeth.

An evening performance for everyone is this Tuesday, April 16, at 7:30 at Springville High School, 1205 East 900 South, Springville, UT. Another performance will be held on Monday, April 15, at 3:30 p.m. at Spanish Fork High, 300 West 99 North, Spanish Fork. And, admission is free. 

Michael Bahr, the festival’s education director directed this production. “For many of our audiences this will be the first time they have seen a professional Shakespeare production,” said Bahr. “This program seeks to entertain, enrich, and educate with innovative and accessible performances to rural and urban schools and communities, many of which would not have this opportunity otherwise.”

Come be entertained and enriched with one of Shakespeare’s greatest plays – and again, admission is free!!!
