Today we had our very own Hopewell Olympics! It was SUCH a fun day! All grade 1-5 students were divided into 24 countries, each with grade 6 team leaders. Teams made up a cheer as well as flags for their countries. At noon, we had the opening ceremonies, during which each country’s national anthem played and the team went on the stage to say their cheer. We heard a lot of enthusiasm!
After lunch, we had 8 outdoor Olympic events and 4 indoor. From luge, to biathlon, to curling, to the crowd-favourite tug-o-war, students cheered on their countries and worked as a team to have fun and show off their skills.
The icing on the cake was that Ms. Bastas had the women’s gold medal hockey game projected in the atrium while we were rotating between stations. The school ERUPTED with cheers when Canada won with an overtime goal.
What a fun and memorable day!
