Woodland Elementary School in Hicksville recently held their Second Annual Pillo Polo Tournament. Like floor hockey, this annual event for fifth graders is coordinated by Woodland Physical Education teacher Meg Williamson and is turning into a well-loved tradition.
The students are divided into four teams and play a lead up tournament that ranks them and lead into an elimination tournament. The teams are playing to win “the Woodland Stanley Cup” and the chance to sign their names to the Championship stick that is proudly displayed throughout the school year.
Fourth grade students are invited to attend the tournament and cheer on the fifth-grade teams with colorful posters and signs giving them a sneak peek of a fun fifth grade tradition they can look forward to next school year.
