The students of the school experienced moments of joy and emotions during the school olympics games, Brazos Abiertos 2024. At the inauguration they started with a parade where each classroom represented a country. Among them were Colombia, South Korea, India, Israel, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Holland and Peru.
During these days, individual and team competitions were held, in both female and male categories. In athletics, individual 50-meter sprint race, relay races, marathon, ball throwing and also team sports soccer and handball. For these games, the participation of 186 children from preschool and primary school was recorded, the children were prepared for several months by the Mexican missionary and physical education teacher, Emmanuel Ozuna López.
We witnessed blessed families having fun, cheering on their children and even crying with emotion. In these Olympics we had the inclusion of an autistic child and a child with motor paralysis who participated in their wheelchair. They were the protagonists of our Olympics and of life, who overcame fear and managed to be heroes for all of us.
We ended with the presentation of medals to the winners of each sporting discipline and each category, but we also valued the participation of all the children so in the end they were all awarded with a special medal.
The motto of the Olympics is based on 1 Corinthians 10:31 “Whether you run or enjoy sports, “Do all for the glory of God”
