The Origami Club met for the first time on Wednesday, October 6. Eighteen children met and folded a bouquet of flowers that they gave to the main office to greet members of the Wallace family as well as visitors. Club members also folded flowers to take home and share with their families.

Returning folders Zach (Hammond House), Ramon (Yeshion House), and Bernaldo (Huckins House) worked with new club members to help them learn the folds and successfully create their first figure.

Ramon showed the group how to fold the swan, and all three club veterans helped the newcomers master the challenging reverse fold so they could create sailboats from squares of paper.

The club meets again on Wednesday, October 20, from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. in Room 337.
