Field Day at LPA is a huge event. There are medals, awards, races, and records to break. This year the classrooms chose a Nation to represent at the games. Hunter's class was Italy. Hayden's class was Russia. Each student got to compete in their groups (K-1, 2-3, and 4-5). Hayden, of course, had his boot on, so he was not able to win any races. (This was a decision that came after many days of tears about the fact that for the first time in his LIFE he would not win a medal. We decided it was someone else's turn to win a medal!)
However, Hunter dominated the events. He broke 3 school records: Shuttle Run, Sit ups, and Pull ups. He ended the day with the Gold medal for his group. This is a great start for him, the Olympics are just around the corner (look out Usain Bolt). Dream big or go home!
Both boys got made the Presidential Award. I remember the torture this award was for me, I tried so hard, yet never got it! I am proud of them, this is not an easy award to get! They both worked so hard and their PE teacher was really proud of them.
