Kindergarten students at Saint Leo the Great School in Lincroft, dressed as centenarians, pose with Vice Principal Deirdre Senkewicz during a celebration of the 100th day of school Feb. 21. Students marked the day by bringing 100 pieces of an item of their choice for counting, stringing 100 colored ring cereals for a necklace and coloring a 100th-day crown to wear. Other activities included assembling a 100-cup structure, licking a lollipop 100 times, cutting out 100 paper ants and more. Not only was the annual celebration filled with fun events, but it also gave students a chance to show off their counting skills. The Italian American Association of Monmouth County will host a comedy night featuring three comedians from 7-11 p.m. on April 13, at the Reception Center at Saint Clement, 172 Freneau Ave., Matawan. Proceeds will benefit the Italian American Association’s Scholarship/Cultural and Charity Fund.
The cost of the show is $50 and includes a buffet dinner, coffee and dessert. A cash bar will be available. For more information, visit www.iaaofmc.com or call 732-536- 5832.
