PE/Health Students of the Month
Congratulations to Leah Robinson, our PE Student of the Month!
Leah is an outstanding example of hard work, determination, and dedication. Her recent accomplishment of winning the Marji 50 is a tremendous achievement and a reflection of the commitment and perseverance she brings to everything she does.
Leah carries that same determination into the classroom. She is always willing to work hard, challenge herself, and give her best effort. Her positive attitude and commitment to excellence make her a wonderful role model for her classmates and a valued member of our school community.
Congratulations to Gabriel Perry, the other PE Student of the Month!
Gabriel is an outstanding student who consistently brings enthusiasm, curiosity, and a positive attitude to the classroom. He is always willing to help others and is eager to learn, often asking thoughtful questions because he genuinely wants to understand more.
Gabriel's politeness, willingness to participate, and commitment to doing his very best make him a wonderful example for his classmates. His enthusiasm for learning and his willingness to go the extra mile are qualities that make him truly deserving of this recognition.
Congratulations, Leah and Gabriel!
