Olympic Field Day 2021

The Eastwood Warriors enjoyed beautiful fall weather this year as students met on the field for a morning of lively competition in the annual Olympic Field Day games.  The sixth graders served as team captains and led their younger classmates in making signs, composing original cheers, and competing on the field.  Each team had an Olympic name.  The twelve teams represented this year were Assyrians, Athenians, Babylonians, Cretans, Greeks, Medes, Persians, Phoenicians, Romans, Spartans, Titans, and Trojans.  The Warriors enjoyed challenging one another as they cheered and battled through relay games such as the tug of war, a balloon toss, shooting hoops, and other relays that demonstrated courage, character, and blazing fast speed.  In addition to winning the games, points were awarded for good sportsmanship, having a Christ-like attitude during the games, encouraging each other, and cheering for other teams. There was a two-way tie for the winner of the coveted Most Christ-like trophy, with congratulations going to the Babylonians and the Medes!
