PE Update September 18th

We continued working on our running activities this week as we get ready for our Terry Fox Run on Wednesday, September 23 at 9:00 a.m. Students have been building their endurance, practicing pacing themselves, and working on staying active for longer periods of time.

We also enjoyed our first community walk! It was great to get outside, enjoy some fresh air, and explore our neighbourhood together.

A reminder that students are also encouraged to bring in Toonies for Terry to support cancer research. Every little bit helps!

Our next community walk is planned for Thursday, September 24. Students should come prepared for the weather and wear comfortable footwear for walking.

Thanks for helping us get the year off to such an active start!

We also began some running training to help get ready for our school Terry Fox Run on September 23. Students are encouraged to bring in toonies for Terry as we work together to support the Terry Fox Foundation.

We’re off to a great start and looking forward to a fun year in PE! Community Walks in PE Starting Wedne...
