Nanyuki Sports Day

Abi had the idea of having a mini olympics for the children...and what a fun-filled day it turned out to be.  The opening ceremony consisted of Rose running up from the cow pen with an inflatable olympic torch.  The children were divided into 5 teams of 10 and competed in various relay events.  We used rice bags for sack races which was hilarious and tomatoes for the egg and spoon race which bounced all over the place as the children dropped them.  Lorraine took charge of the scoring, Cameron was a leader for his team while Harry, Abi and Natasha ran around controlling the children.  Kevin and I captured the event through the lens.  The children were very enthusiastic and enjoyed every minute.  We ended up with the younger ones running races around the house whilst the older ones competed in a 'mini marathon'.  In this event, Harry and Cameron joined in with Harry falling at the start and Cameron getting lost!  Lots of sweets and colourful pencils were given as prizes.  After their lunch we handed out lots of clothes that we had bought with us.
