Heartwood students and staff made the most of the summer sunshine with a Field Day full of laughter, movement, and memory-making. With water toys, water balloons, and plenty of splashing, the day was a sensory-friendly celebration of fun.

A special visit from a local hot air balloon pilot added extra excitement—students had a chance to explore the basket and learn about the science of flight up close.

Events like Field Day help create positive school experiences rooted in joy and curiosity. At Heartwood, every student gets the chance to shine—and to soak up a little sunshine, too.
