Students across the Pontiac performed in holiday concerts in the week prior to the Christmas break, after this newspaper’s last issue of the year had already been published. Here are just some moments from the performances at Onslow, St. John’s and Dr. S. E. McDowell elementary schools.

Students at St. John’s Elementary School in Campbell’s Bay held their Christmas concert on Dec. 18 to a packed house. Pictured are students in the Grade 2/3 class performing their musical number.
