Lower Primary School Sports Day.

09 March 2012 (Fri):

To round off the end of Term 1, the school has it annual sports meet this morning. All lower primary students to report to their FT by 0730hrs. There was a slight drizzle and the sports committee decided to have the event in the school hall instead. There was already a tentage set up on the school field, ready for the sports event but was abandoned eventually.

The National Anthem being sang with the lower primary students in the school hall & the upper primary in their individual classroom. All parents were at the foyer. The National Anthem was played thru the PA system & everyone said their pledge.

The event started off with the P2s. There were about 6 different sports events such as the Olympics Touch Relay, Zig Zag Challenger, Mr Bean, Rugby Relay, etc...


Enjoy the short video.

Next highlight of the morning will be the P1s. They have also about 6 different sport items and they competed against other very eagerly.


Here we have Lionel doing his event - The Zig Zag Challenge. They need to run around the cones to the end, turn around & back to their teammates.

Next we have the Parents' Race. Its so nice to see the parents being so sporting & running against each other. Imagine they were running against their class mates or school mates some 20 ~ 30 years ago and now, they are running against the parents of their child's classmates.


Woohoo!! Way to go, parents.

Up next is the Parent & Child Race event. I signed both Lionel & Daddy up. There were a total of seven groups & the father & son team were in group 5. There were about 6 pairs in each group.


After the end of the sports meet, seen here is the school principal giving a short speech & also the prize giving ceremony.

The overall champions were awarded to Primary 1 & Primary 2 Respect. The Parent & Child Race was awarded to Group 5 for 1st place.


The whole event ended at 11am & we wait for another half an hour more to pick Lionel up. The FT, Ms Sathiya, distributed to each student of P1 Respect a medal in honor of 1st place. Here you can see Lionel wearing his medal.

Woohoo! The school holidays are here. Enjoy everyone but do not forget to compete your given holiday assignments.
