Sports Day
Each playschool class will be participating in their own sports day on Wednesday, May 17, and Thursday, May 18. We are hoping the weather will cooperate with us so that we can do the majority of activities outside. These activities will include relay races, an obstacle course, bean bag toss, bubbles, chalk, water balloons, as well as other games like duck, duck goose. If the weather is not our friend, we will be doing all these activities in the gym, except the water balloons!!
On your child’s sports day, please send them dressed for the weather. If it is hot, please send a hat, sunscreen, and bug spray. If it is cool, please send a coat and bug spray. And please have your children wear loose fitting clothes that you are okay with getting grass stains on!!
