Super Turkeys 2011

Happy Thanksgiving from Royalmont Academy! We hope you had a blessed Thanksgiving.

Families and communities share many holiday traditions during Thanksgiving and Christmas, so we wanted to share one of Royalmont's Thanksgiving traditions: Super Turkeys! From a simple posterboard frame, students create their very own Super Turkey according to a theme of their choosing. Students work independently or with a small group of their classmates to make their vision come to life. Combining imagination, creativity, and hardwork, they make costumes and props for their turkeys, and some even create elaborate backdrops.

In the days leading up to Thanksgiving break, Super Turkeys are displayed in the halls of the schools for students, staff, and parents to admire. The final products are impressive and pretty hilarious at times. When all the projects are completed, the Super Turkeys are judged in a school-wide contest and winners are chosen for each grade.

Royalmont Academy is a private, Catholic school located northeast of Cincinnati - serving Mason, Loveland, West Chester, and South Lebanon.
