Lynbrook students had an ‘arr’some time at Playground’s Pirate Day

Posted

The Lynbrook Summer Playground’s Pirate Day was a success on July 19 as students came ready with eyepatches, hook hands, bandanas, and more, signaling a day of fun.

Each year, the Summer Playground welcomes all Lynbrook Public Schools students and Village of Lynbrook children entering kindergarten through eighth grade. Kicking off the festivities at Marion Street and West End elementary schools, students showed off their pirate costumes in an exciting parade. Afterward, shipmates cooled down with ices and gathered for a variety of activities of their own choosing, including baseball and soccer games, a run through the sprinklers, and fun on the schools’ playgrounds.

Since opening this summer, students at Summer Playground have also tie-dyed shirts, taken regular trips to Woodmere Lanes for bowling, participated in interactive martial arts lessons, and enjoyed a game-filled carnival day. Soon, they will show their skills in a talent show and compete in the Summer Playground Olympics.
