The last few weeks of school were very busy with lots of fun activities, including a field trip to Battersea Park Children's Zoo, Sports Day, and the Summer Concert.
If you know Nathan, you can probably guess which activity was his favorite--Sports Day! He's super competitive and athletic, so he was looking forward to Sports Day for weeks and when the day finally arrived, he did great!! There were three races--a running race; a sack race; and a race where the kids had to balance a potato on a spoon. Nathan won two of the three races (running and the sack race) and he actually crossed the finish line first in the last race, but he was disqualified for cheating (he held the potato with his hand so it wouldn't fall off the spoon - oops!). He got a medal for participating and two certificates for his first place finishes! He was very excited!!
Nathan had such a great first year at nursery school! And, now we're looking forward to our trip to Chicago and California this summer!

| Nathan's Summer Concert. His class danced to "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" and then sang "5 Little Monkeys Jumping On The Bed" and "Miss Polly Had A Dolly" (hence the Monkey/Doctor costumes). |
