Kids and parents learn about wellness from members of the community

Posted

The Rockville Centre school district invited members of the community to the South Side Middle School track and field last Saturday morning to participate in its Wellness Walk and Fair event.

Everyone enjoyed learning about the different aspects of wellness with athletic activities that included dance, cross-fit, walking, hula-hoops and more. There were also a number of interactive booths, including ones on sensory learning, the school district’s Sources of Strength program, the Ryan Patrick O’Shea Foundation, and dozens of other fun afternoon activities for the whole family. There were plenty of prizes and fun giveaway items and a celebratory color run for those hoping to enjoy exercising with powerful pops of color.
