Newfolden Elementary 6th Graders had a couple rewarding learning opportunities this week. Thursday, students had their first visit with Newfolden area Senior Citizens. This tradition has created generational friendships which both students and seniors benefit and enjoy. They worked on a halloween craft during the visit. Today Marcus Waterworth and Kent Broten provided a demonstration on trapping and some history about the Pembina Trail.
