All OHES families are invited to celebrate and participate in this German tradition

During Laternenfest, children of the elementary school age walk along the streets holding colorful, often self-made lanterns, sing songs, and share treats.

 

We will gather at school Door 1 to hear a German story, sing and listen to traditional songs and walk with our lanterns through the neighborhood. We will reconvene back at OHES for warm refreshments & baked goods!
