Sports Day!



This past Thursday we had the pleasure of celebrating "Sports Day" at the French School  This is the equivalent of a Canadian "Track and Field" day as there were several events running, including discus, high jump, standing long jump, and 100 m relays.  I was assigned the task of "Photographer."  It was a fantastic experience!
Here at Grace, the entire school is divided up into "Merit Teams" of four different colors; red, yellow, green, and blue.  During the school year, each student has a chance to earn "Merits" for good behavior, good classroom performance, and other related things.   Sports day is just another way for the teams to earn points!  It was so wonderful to see everyone involved, there wasn't one child without the right color t-shirt or face paint on, and everyone was so supportive of one another that it really was a great experience.  I have attached a slideshow of some of the best pictures from the day.  I hope you enjoy!


Oh and of course, my team, the YELLOW team were the Champions! Yippee!!!
