Students at Cawston Primary celebrated the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics by staging a torch bearing event of their own on Monday, February 3 at Cawston Primary School.

Each class represented a country particpating in the 2014 games. Students placed their torches in an Olympic cauldron in response to hearing the country’s national anthem played during a PowerPoint presentation.

“The students will be participating in a different Olympic event each day for the next seven school days, “ explained Cawston Primary Principal Linda Thiel. “The event will depend on what is being staged at the Olympics on a particular day.” Thiel said the students would be performing the event during their phys ed class.

This is Cawston Primary’s second Olympics.
