Nadine participated in her school Sports Day yesterday.
I love the creativity and purposefulness of LSK teachers. There is a lesson to be learnt in all the activities that they plan, including Sports Day.
This year, the theme is "Love Never Fails". All children are paired up, and are taught to help each other to succeed in their tasks. The aim of their games is not to win, but to accomplish the tasks, and help each other to become better at those tasks. What a wonderful lesson!
Here's Nadine's class item: they have to "cross the river", making sure that they don't drop in and get bitten by the crocodiles; save a bunny, hop on the hop-scotch and count to 10 while balancing on 1 leg; feed the hippo; hug each other to bring a balloon to another basket; and finally take a photo.
Could see that Nadine was absolutely confident and had no "stage-fright" at all. In fact, she couldn't seem to stop moving!
Here's their final parade, at the end of all the class activities.
The principal kept reminding the parents that the children are at different levels of development and capabilities. What's most important, is to celebrate every level of success they achieve.
We certainly celebrate and thank God for Nadine's confidence and excellent motor skills!
