Gold's Gym Visits
One of the trainers from Gold's Gym came out to our center to talk to all The Academy kids about healthy eating and exercising. He went through a basic work out plan. All the kids enjoyed meeting and working out with a trainer.
Jumping Jacks are fun and they make our hearts pump fast.
Squats strengthen our legs.

The Branches Bolt Tini-Marathon
To encourage each child towards better health and to raise funds for Branches Ministries, each school hosted a “Tini”-Marathon! The Branches Bolt consisted of 20 laps (max) or less on race day. The Academy families pledged to raise pledges/donations for race day from friends and family. Their support for Branches provided needed funds to support your family, teachers and staff in times of need. We invited all families to attend and/or race with your child on BOLT day!
Before our race we all stretched with Ms. Carrie. Stretching before working out is very important.
Preschool running their laps. They were the the most excited about running around their playground. Ms. Amanda and Ms. Jenn ran with them. Everyone felt so good after exercising together.
Pre-K had a blast running with their friends. They ran under the slides and around the play scape. Everyone was breathing heavy from the activity. When they were all done, they were talking about the next time they would run laps around the playground.
After all the exercising, the friends got together for a sisterly hug and some laughs. Everyone had a blast.
