Olympic Highlights

Was there something going on in Vancouver last week? There was so much Olympic hoopla around the B household that we got a little temporarily out of the loop. After all, the Elementary Olympics at Miss M's school only come around once a year. They are a long-standing tradition and an opportunity for the children to be introduced to various track and field events while learning about about competition, sportsmanship and teamwork. Monday through Thursday were devoted to field activities for various grade levels and awards ceremonies took place on Friday. The physical education department and teachers go all out to make the event fun and memorable. Miss M had so much fun participating and cheering on her friends, and she even placed 7th out of all the girls in the obstacle course!
