At our school the students have been participating in the ”Kilometer Club’ for the last six weeks. Three times a week we have gone outside to run for twenty minutes around the soccer field. Our goal has been to improve our level of fitness. Every five laps of the field is equivalent to a kilometer and after twenty laps the students earn a plastic coloured foot or token. We keep the coloured tokens on a chain which can be worn around the neck. Some of my grade three students are strong runners and were able to complete over two hundred laps by the end of the program. The students started the ‘Kilometer Club’ last year and we’ll probably do it again next year. Each year they add more coloured feet or tokens to their chain. Congratulations to all the students in Division 7 for their determined running over the last six weeks!
