Alan's Athletic Event

Alan woke up early and he is ready to go to his important, exciting event. In the car, Alan told me that he wants to win the marathon and he also hopes that his class can win in two competitions: balance ace and relay race. My son was hopping that the competition will turn meaningful and exciting.

The ceremony open with Principal's speech and other PTA parents speech.

When we arrived at his school, Alan's class and other classes were ready to walk down the show. It is like Olympic games were we could see who are the athletes in each class. This is girl is Alan's classmate, she is in girls scouts team. She has the honor to show everyone that her class is fourth grade class A.

After every class were walking down, now it is the turn to take out the flags. The middle flag is from the country, the right side is from the school and the third one is to represent the athletic events. These three boys are so cute in this uniform, I am hopping that when my reached to six grade he will have the honor to take the flags too. It is just a hope.


Every grade level have it own team. The topic in Alan's level is flower. Everyone was wearing flower a big flower on their heads. Alan's class has the color yellow, follow by red, orange and blue from other three neigh boor classes.

My son is so cute in this yellow flower. he is like the little sweet heart who came out from my body. He is so happy, it seems he did not have any problems at all. he never worries about anything.

They are ready to walk around and let people see them. All of them are so cute even the girls are so pretty. From the picture, you can see my son and his classmates are good friends.

After walking down the show, three grade levels will open the Athletic events by performing the show. It is like the Olympics this year. Each show was so great and meaningful. All students in all three levels danced wonderfully. They put all their effort into it. These little red princess and princes are new comers of school. yes, you are right, they are the first graders. They also had a performance, each of them were so cute.

The first competition that Alan had was individual marathon. The teacher is making everybody to seat still and listen to her. She is giving instructions to them. They all seemed excited and ready.
It is Alan's turn to run in the marathon. Alan was paying attention to the teacher who is giving instructions. When the PE teacher said ready to go, Alan was running very fast.
He was running so fast and he got in the second place. Alan was so proud of himself, and he is so happy.

Both of them look like very happy. They did a great job.
After the marathon competition, they can relax a little bit and be ready for the second competition. The second competition is the balance competition.
