Good Show, Old Sport

Poor Arthur splintered a bone in his foot during rehearsals for the formation dance in today's Sports Day. Arthur wasn't able to practice for the races or the dances. The teachers, knowing how disappointed Arthur would be about not being able to compete in the relay race (since he is one of the top three runners in his year group) allowed him to do some other nice things such as announcements and taiko drumming. Arthur did convince the doctor to allow him to participate in the relay race and, despite his injury, he did very well indeed. I think you can see the determination on his face and he very nearly overtook this runner who was well ahead when this lap started. Arthur was the anchor. I am so proud!
