The spirit of St. Patrick’s Day came alive this March at Fuller Center as children celebrated with a festive and colorful parade, transforming the campus into a sea of green and gold. Beyond the fun and excitement, the celebration offered valuable learning opportunities—blending creativity, cultural exploration, and social bonding.
The parade was more than just a lively event—it was a chance for children to engage in cultural traditions that promote social skills, teamwork, and a sense of belonging. Marching together in rhythm, waving their handmade shamrocks, and dancing to upbeat Irish tunes encouraged collaboration and camaraderie.
“Events like this are so much more than just a celebration—they help children develop confidence, creativity, and social connections in a joyful and memorable way,” said Eric Roby, Chief Executive Officer at Fuller Center.

The St. Patrick’s Day festivities also sparked imaginative play and sensory engagement.

Through playful activities, they learned about the history and significance of St. Patrick’s Day, fostering an early appreciation for diversity and heritage.
