DIABOLOFEST. by Jester Games

On Monday Nov. 27, 2017 our school hosted a DiaboloFest for the 5th and 7th grade PE classes. The diabolo (Chinese yo-yo) is an ancient Chinese juggling art form and alternative sport. "Diabolo" is a Greek word meaning "throw across." The program took place during our PE classes, where students were introduced to the Diabolo and had a chance to play with one and experience it personally. Each period was hosted by a professional Diaboloist, who gave one-on-one instruction and treated us all to a phenomenal display of advanced tricksl The Diabolo will help us allto develop skills, expand creativity, and increase activity.

For the next 2 weeks – Through Friday Dec. 8,2017, the Jester Games Pro Diabolo will be available for sale to students at a discounted student price of $25, which includes the Diabolo plus sticks and string. The Jester Games Pro Diabolo is made of high quality rubber and is the only Diabolo made in the U.S.A. All payments will be accepted by cash or check made payable to Jester Games. *Note - lf paying with cash. no coins will be accepted. only paper currency.* ***
