As Nora's preschool year was winding down, it was time for a morning at the park for which the weather cooperated. :) Scott and I stood at the sidelines, watching the general confusion for the teachers in trying to make 5 relay lines of 4 years old, and then expecting them to return to the same line. (Nora worked her way through three different lines...)
 |
Nora is trying to figure out who this girl is, as she randomly joined the activites while
playing at the park. We gave the same looks, but in wondering where her parent was! |
 |
| No, I did not plan to dress alike... |
 |
A triumphant moment when she figured
out what was supposed to be happening! |
 |
| Carrying an egg was exciting... |
 |
| ...and at least it was hard-boiled! |
Free play was more Nora's style, and she had no trouble embracing the water.
An extremely talented parent offered face painting to the delight of everyone.
 |
| Nora was the only child who chose an Octopus. |
Attending Lewis' last Sports Day was not nearly as exciting for Nora and her mood reflected such when we showed up after preschool. She had asked her teacher to do specific face painting motifs during class, which were not quite as well-placed as last time, and not exactly indicative of a sunny mood with a rainbow present. Perhaps we just needed time for "the rain to pass..." ;)
 |
| Nora's classic dirty look... |
 |
| Perseverance and more snacks helped. |
Lewis led his own team of children from each grade, which was fun to observe.
 |
| Nora mellowed over lunch break as she met the other kids. |
Scott had a good time taking some photos to share with the school. Lewis contemplates the route for the forest relay.
 |
This was our first year of having a sports day in one location
for the students, as the new primary school is now finished and
located behind the older middle school. No shade but a lot of space. |
Say farewell Lewis, your days are limited on the playground. :(
