Sulky Sports!

Sports day at Niaves school started at 10:00 a.m. and up until 9:55 she was super excited, keen as ever but it didn't last.
For some reason at 9:59 she decided she didn't want to have sports day and insisted that the "big walk" (which was really a small walk) was making her dizzy!
They had to do 6 laps of a field which is not full size and there was loads of motivation along the way: sweets at 1 corner, orange slices at the next, juice at another and the stamping station at the end of the lap. She was having none of it! She did succumb to some juice (all that dizziness!) and she secretly enjoyed getting the stamps but most of the time the face we saw was this:She has perfected the pout! I don't think that lip could get any lower, I know she tried!

But after an egg and bacon roll and an ice bite she was ready for more!

Her class, the youngest group in the school, did 1 race. They had to stand in a hoop, each hoop a different colour and run with a beanbag to the hoop of the same colour at the other end.

She was finally happy when she got her "metal" (although it was very much cardboard!!).

Maybe next year we'll have Smiley Sports!!
