So Kid's Warrior Night has come and gone. It was monumental for me. Twenty eight students between the ages of five and twelve, five instructors and two extremely valuable helpers. Controlled chaos at times but worth every second. I have dozens of stories I could relate but really you just had to be there to experience the joy of it.
A couple of things really stuck with me though. Like my blogs title, Future Leaders and Dreamers, seeing the personality of some of these students really hit home with me. Artists (Todai Cynthia Bourque), happy observers (Todai Caleb Stewart), absolute limitless energy (Todai Kaine Street-Ramsey), pure quiet leadership (Todai Freya Paszek), willingness to help beyond his years (Todai Nathan Sloove), focus beyond belief (Todai Nathan Ferris), these are but a few examples of the marvelous students we have in our school. If that night would have been three times longer I still would not have grown tired of the priceless interaction I was receiving with the future leaders of our world.
I will cherish the opportunity of being allowed to be part of this event and I am looking forward to the next opportunity to be involved in any event like this.
A very very large shout out to my fellow participants;
Todai Hadley and Mikayla Smith-Jansen
Sehing Shira Csillag, Sehing Simon Kohut, Sehing Kayley Burke
and our ring master....
Todai Malinda Ferris
You all make this school a great place to be.
