Recommended slogans for an elementary school sports day

10 years as a kindergarten teacher / elementary school teacher / junior and senior high school teacher / childminderkepiko
Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

Four-character-idiom type (1–10)

reckless; desperate; frenzied (doing something with fierce, single-minded intensity)

These words convey the determination to face the limited time of the sports festival with full effort and the will to push forward toward victory.

They also evoke the idea that it’s okay to be awkward and suggest a head-on, full-contact attitude, communicating an obsession with winning and a desperate, all-out effort.

The fact that the characters used have many strokes is also an important point, as it creates a sense of strength when written.

By rallying around words that express giving your all as a team, it strongly suggests an impression of everyone elevating each other’s abilities.

fiery and high-spirited; brimming with passionate enthusiasm

In the sense of igniting the heart toward victory, the character for “flame” (炎) feels perfect for a sports festival setting, doesn’t it? This is a bold slogan centered on that flame character, expressing unwavering determination head-on.

It’s a four-character idiom that depicts a spirit so fired up it overwhelms others, and raising it as a banner could also emphasize the team’s overall power.

You can also write the “flame” part as 焔, so consider which version better matches your feelings, and design it with the overall balance and coolness in mind.
