A feast before the traditional holiday spreads was served at the Hillside Intermediate School on the morning of Friday, November 15.
The annual Breakfast at Hillside was sponsored by the Bridgewater-Raritan Education Association (BREA) on this morning to the delight of many students, families, and staff who gathered in the school's all-purpose room.
Mark Heinbach, a Grade 6 Teacher at Hillside, was among the BREA hosts.
He serves as Hillside's' BREA representative and is also the Negotiations Co-Chairperson for the BREA.
"This breakfast is being held close to Thanksgiving so it is a time to be thankful and grateful," Mr. Heinbach said. "We had paper leaves on each table where students can write down on why they are grateful and submit to our BREA table."
He added:
"This (breakfast) gives the community the opportunity to come together with the holidays approaching."
