Sala Sala Field Day

Our Physical Education Teacher at HOPAC, Rose, had a team come out and help put on FOUR Field Days...one each for the Primary and Secondary students at HOPAC and then 2 for the Sala Sala kids that we work with on Monday and Tuesdays each week.  They brought out t-shirts, ribbons, certificates, and purchased snacks and WATER FILTERS for the families that we love from the Sala Sala rock quarry behind HOPAC.  What a huge blessing they were!  It's always so awesome when you can share your vision with those from home.

Showing up, getting their shirts, some water and a banana, and getting ready for the events.

Jackson and Shaun letting the kids know what is going to happen.

They're listening.

Jennifer Wickham, all ready for the events to begin.

My group of girls started off with the softball throw.

They had been working on this skill for the past couple of months on Mondays.

And, there she goes, the ball is away.

Gavin, Gwangi, and Indy were measuring the distances.

They all wanted to see how far they had thrown the softball.

Then, the long jump.

Those girls could get some air.

And, she landed.

Another one is flying.

Lucy was excited and watching some of the younger girls jump.

Gwangi

The running events...200, 400, and 800 meters.

Checking on the times.

The boys, coming around the corner.

The girls, cheering on the boys.

We got some ribbons, and they were so happy!

And certificates, too.

The girls going up to get their ribbons and certificates.

Another ribbon!

The view of the moon as we were leaving after the kids had gone and we had cleaned up the field.  Whew!  What a day!  So glad Rose's team also brought GLO STICKS for the kids that helped, my kids were thrilled!  Thanks, Rose!
