It has been a versatile solution for moving heavy gym equipment from our indoor gym to our outdoor playground. The folding cart is equipped with two 4\" swivel castors and two rigid wheels, allowing it to glide easily even with a heavy load. The padded handle makes it comfortable to maneuver, while the textured platform surface prevents supplies from slipping. Best of all, it stores in a flat configuration that does not take up a lot of space. This folding cart will be used for many years to come.

Staying adequately hydrated will ensure that my students are able to focus on lessons in the classroom and on sports and other extra curricular activities at the end of the school day. Most students do not drink enough during the school day. Apart from the clear risks of dehydration, students who do not consume the recommended amount of fluid may be at a disadvantage in the classroom. This is because good hydration can improve cognitive performance in children, including memory and concentration.
