Meadow View Health and Wellness Fair!

Diana Bridges, Literacy Team Leader at Kawana Elementary



The Health and Wellness Fair, put on this year by Meadow View Elementary School, had all the features of a good fair. Parents, mentors, and students alike attended the event and enjoyed the activities and attractions. Many booths offered information about health care and safety for families, and other offered food like watermelon, which was popular on such a hot day! Aztec and Chinese dancing was also featured as entertainment, adding a multicultural aspect to the fair.

The favorite attraction of the day for kids seemed to be the bike rodeo, where students were given the chance to ride awesome courses chalked onto the hot pavement of the blacktop. At the Bike Rodeo, students had their pictures taken and were awarded their bicycle licences before riding the four trail course. Students were most excited to dodge boulders, ride the figure eight trail, and use the hand signals they had learned in the mini-safety course. Just as it has been in the past, the Health and Wellness fair was successful in bringing many families together for food, fun, and education!
