Having a Field Day

It’s been a couple of weeks since the Youth Leads kids hosted their own field day. But they did such a good job, and were so proud of their accomplishments, that I thought it deserved some recognition here on my blog.



After 11 weeks of after-school training in sports, leadership and health, 15 learners in grades 5, 6 and 7 organized and conducted their very own field day for the younger kids.



Our kids taught other students the games they’d learned from me and Tonje. They made signs for their stations, broke learners into smaller groups and made sure everything ran efficiently—all on their own.

It was a proud moment—not just for them—but for us, too.
