Reindeer Run

Reindeer Run

Our reindeer have delivered the presents

Many fundamental movement skills were required to get to the end; jump, hop, duck, crawl, weave, run, catch, throw and balance to name a few.

Our “Dodge the Snowball” part proved the biggest hit (literally)

But, most importantly our reindeer were able to throw the presents down the chimney in the end. All smiles and fun on our new astro turf today!!

Huge thanks to our Active School Committee and the many staff helpers who made today such a fun event. #activeflag #activeschools
