Sahel Academy Spirit Week!

Last week at my school it was Spirit Week where we dress up and do fun stuff. We do it to encourage our baseball teams before they play in a big tournament here in Niamey. Each day we dress up for a different theme. Monday was rock star so I spiked my hair and wore sunglasses.

Tuesday was crazy hat day. I put 4 hats on: 1 of my sisters, my bike helmet, another baseball cap & an african hat.


The rest of the week my mom forgot to take pictures! Wednesday was Fairy Tale day and I was the Frog Prince, Thursday was Somewhere Else Day and I went late because I had an infection in my eye and so didn't get dressed up. Friday was Spirit Day and we all wore our School Colors and we had a Pep Rally to encourage the teams. And there was a competition for cheers and my class won for the elementary grades. Our prize was a BIG chocolate cake mmmmm yum. The Sahel Suns won the tournament so I guess our cheers worked. All the teams for Sahel Academy were: Social Suns, Scorpions and Sahel Suns. It was a fun weekend!
