Sports day Success.

It was great to see so many children being active all at once and showing sportsmanship throughout the day last Friday! Thank-you to the many parents that joined us on the ES Sports Day last Friday. Your presence and your willingness to either participate or assist was greatly appreciated. Thank-you to our teachers who supported the event and special thanks to teachers who were assigned to run the games.

Sports day is a celebration of an active lifestyle. A whole day devoted to physical activity as opposed to onscreen activity! Sports Day reminds us that physical activity provides opportunities for social interaction, challenge and enjoyment. Sportsmanship allows us to play competitively and still enjoy being active whether we win or lose. The importance of sportsmanship will continue in all activities we do in physical education. Sports day reminds us just how much fun it can be to be active.
