Lincoln Elementary hosts circus performer Incredible Larry

The Incredible Larry will leave every one of the 270 students at Scotia-Glenville's Lincoln Elementary School with a skill.

Perhaps juggling. Plate spinning. Tossing "devil sticks." Or riding a unicycle.

During the first week of April, every child at Lincoln will be involved in a workshop of about 75 minutes. The week will conclude with a circus assembly featuring the grade 5 students on Friday afternoon and an evening performance from 6:30-8 p.m. at the school, located on Albion Street, Scotia.

Below are specific times by grades for the rest of this week.

“This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to learn something new and get a good amount of physical exercise at the same time,” said Principal Ann Comley.

The Incredible Larry is a comic juggler who has performed coast to coast at festivals, casinos, amusement parks, and theatres since 1992.

Here are a few times that Incredible Larry will be working in the gym with students:

• Wednesday, April 2: 9 to 10:30 a.m., grade 5; 11-11:45 a.m., grade 1; 11:45 a.m.-12:30 p.m., grade 4; and 1:30-3, grade 5
.
• Thursday, April 3: 10:45 to 11:30 a.m., grade 3; 11:45 a.m.-12:30 p.m., grade 4; 1:15-2 p.m., grade 2
