My Project

Our students enjoy our outdoor time and are able to use equipment to play games together. When our students have physical exercise, they are better able to learn in the classroom. We have a beautiful playground area but we need to replace the equipment students use outside.

Refreshing our outdoor equipment will provide our students opportunities to enhance the skills they learn in our physical education class while preparing them for classroom learning.

On the playground students increase their ability to build teams and communicate in a fun, natural way. They enjoy playing games while helping their bodies become calm and strong.
