We Finished With A Bang!

The 2008/2009 school year ended super fast! Between Field trips and report cards we were extremely busy! Year end activities for the girls included bowling, swimming, trips to Saskatoon Island for a bug walk and fun day for Ainsley and Dakota and a Track Meet for Mckenna.
For the Grade 1-3 Fun Day, Bill had the day off so he was able to come watch some of the events. The girls participated in relay races, "javelin throw" with swimming noodles, soccer kick, lawn bowling, and long jump to name a few. The girls had a wonderful morning and were sure excited that Daddy (and Mom) got to watch.






Mckenna's Track Meet was exciting to watch! The Grade 5 Girls' events had some steep competition for Mckenna. In Fort Nelson she was able to win a lot of ribbons and events- in GP it was a little more difficult. She was in good spirits about not winning, but she was very determined to win ONE ribbon before the end of the day. The last event of the day...the killer 800m race! She lined up at the start line... competitive juices flowing... knowing that she could run such a long distance because of her Moose Run winnings...eyes glued to the track ahead...and she was off and running. She worked hard, pushed herself, and came SECOND! She gave it her all! I was very proud of her and she was excited to finally win a ribbon!
