For many years now, Mr. Kessaris, a former Physical Education teacher who is now the principal of our school, and I have been taking students on Health Walks. We do these walks on Wednesday morning at 7:55, and we walk for about 15 minutes through the neighborhood. It's very relaxing and invigorating. In addition, it gets the kids out for some exercise. Here's a picture of Mr. Kessaris and some of the students out for our Health Walk.
In addition to these walks, the Goodyear School offers plenty of free exercise opportunities. The school has three stories, and the 3rd, 4th and 5th graders are on the third floor - I like to call it the Penthouse. Any way, we go up and down the stairs all day long so we get plenty of "free" exercise.
I like to think that the more exercise I get, the healthier I'll be. Plus you can never get enough fresh air - that's why these Health Walks are such a great opportunity. All students and teachers are invited to join us on these Health Walks so please try to join us any Wednesday at 7:55 a.m.
