PCElympics

The time is quickly approaching for our annual PCElympics! All our competitions will be held during your child’s PE time during the week of May 5-8.  They will compete in Tug-of-War, Dress the Teachers Relay, and many more team games.  At the end of the week (Friday, May 9), we will have our closing ceremonies which will consist of water slides, sprinklers, slip-n-slides, games and snacks.  This year we will also give you the opportunity to order a PCElympics t-shirt.  The shirts will be $10 each and will be worn during our closing ceremony celebration. All money and order forms are due by Wednesday, April 8.  Checks must be written out to PCES and include driver’s license number and phone number.

Order forms went home today! Please see a coach for more information.

Field Day

Field Day was such a blast!  A big THANKS to Coach Blain, Harden, Nelson, and Taff for all of their hardwork to make the PCElympics so fantastic and such a wonderful, memorable event for our students!

Dress the Teacher

Today's PCElympic relay was dress the teacher, and we came in second place, earning a silver shoe! We had a blast at PE, and displayed our 'yellow' spirit all day long.

Third grade teachers after the relay!

PCElympic Opening Ceremonies

 

Today was the first day of the PCElympics!

It was an exciting day and will be such a fun week.  Opening ceremonies kicked things off with grade level floats, class banners, music, and plenty of Olympic spirit and pageantry.

We are Team Taff!

We even won a bronze medal in today's PE competition.  Check back each day this week for more exciting updates on how we are doing.

Let the games begin!

PCElympics --- Next Week!!!

The 3rd annual PCElympics are coming up the week of May 13-17.  We are trying to bring the Olympic spirit to PCES.  We will not have field day t-shirts this year.  Instead, we are asking the students and teachers to wear certain colors of the Olympic rings on certain days.

Monday the 13th - Wear a RED shirt

Tuesday the 14th - Wear a YELLOW shirt

Wednesday the 15th - Wear a BLUE shirt

Thursday the 16th - Wear a BLACK shirt

Friday the 17th - Wear a GREEN shirt

Your child will be involved in class competitions during their PE time every day.  They will compete against other classes in relays, tug-of-war, and other activities for a chance to win golden shoe trophies.

We will have our opening ceremonies Monday, May 13, at 8:30 a.m.  Each class will make a banner to be in hte parade, which will go around the school twice.  Students that are not involved in holding banners will sit along the outside of the hallway to watch the parade.

The closing ceremony will be Friday, May 17.  THIS EVENT IS FREE TO YOUR CHILD.  This is the day students look forward to the most.  We will have water slides, slip-n-slides, kiddy pools, soapy tug-of-war.  Snacks will be sold for $1 (popcorn, cotton candy, and snow cones) and we will also have a dunking booth this year.  Your child will have the opportunity to dunk a teacher or a coach!  The cost for the dunking booth will be 25 cents per throw.  Third grade closing ceremonies will last from 12:30-2:30 p.m.

As always, you are invited to watch your child compete in the events during their PE time.  You are also invited to come for the closing ceremonies and enjoy getting wet and have fun with your child!
