Hello everyone, On Wednesday our school had Walk or Wheels day at school. You can Walk or Wheel and if you live too far to walk or wheel you can drive close to the school and walk or wheel from there and I roller skated. At the end of the day before the bell rang we all meet in the hall for the PALs (Physical Activity Leaders) who drew out 5 or 6 names from each team and those people go up and pick a sticky note and give it to a PAL and they turn it over and on the bottom of the sticky note says the thing that they win (I didn't win one though). There were things like snap bands, drink bottles and a few other things to. Me roller skating-  Bye, Milan😄🙂
