Colham Ferry Elementary School Physical Education

**Save the Date** Jump Rope for Heart event dates are Wednesday, February 19 and Thursday, February 20.  All donations are due Thursday, February 20.  Thank you for supporting the American Heart Association and helping friends and family with sick hearts!  :)      

Parents, I wanted to make you aware of some small, simple ways to contribute to the American Heart Association.  Every year we get a new Jump Rope for Heart banner.  The banner consists of two colors which change each year.  Students can guess the banner colors for 25 cents with an unlimited number of guesses.  In addition, students can purchase hearts (“In Memory of,” “In Honor of,” or “I’m a Heart Hero because”) for friends or family that have or had sick hearts.  Each heart costs 25 cents and will be displayed on our Heart Wall in the gym.  Students can bring money to PE in a ziplock bag or envelope.  Please include names for Memory and Honor hearts. Thank you for your support in helping kids and people with sick hearts. Coach Little

Congratulations to Gregory Bays and Zach Cartrette for having the most miles for Mustang Trotters!  Over the past six weeks Gregory completed 76 miles and Zach completed 83 miles!  Way to go!  We had an awesome time at Mustang Trotters this year....we hope to see everyone back next year.

Students, parents, and teachers, Get excited and get moving! We will be continuing Mustang Trotters this fall beginning in October.  Mustang Trotters is a walking/running club that meets after school on Tuesdays. The club is open to students in grades 3, 4, and 5, parents, and teachers and it advocates a healthy, active lifestyle.  Be on the lookout for more information in Friday Folders on September 20th.

Welcome to the New School Year! I am really excited to be a Mustang at CFES!  Mrs. Elizabeth Miller will be working with me as the PE parapro.  I am thrilled to have her.  We are both looking forward to meeting the "Mustangs."   Stay tuned for what's happening in PE.
