This weekend, students participating in the Polish Nativity Castle (“Szopka”) Club will have their creations judged at the 38th annual Szopka competition at the Polish Cultural Club in Hartford.  The event will be held this coming Saturday and is open to the public if you would like to stop by.  Students, with much guidance from middle school teacher Ms. Carol Oleasz, have put a lot of time and effort into making these beautiful palaces depicting the Holy Family and Baby Jesus.  We wish them the best of luck in the competition!  Here are a few of the students putting their finishing touches on the castles this afternoon.
