We were extremely lucky today in 5S to have Jessica's dad, Mr. Ryan, come and talk to the boys and girls about Olympics and specifically, the Olympic Torch. Mr. Ryan has been involved with Sport and the Olympics for years and he shared his experience and knowledge with the children. In fact, he was an Olympic Torch Runner for the Sydney Olympics and he brought his torch in for the children to see. The boys and girls had lots of questions about the history of the Olympics and the Olympic torch. Everyone learned a few interesting facts about the torch such as there is a "back up" flame that travels with every runner in case their torch becomes extinguished. 5S would like to thank Mr. Ryan very much for his visit.
