The long-awaited day for our inter-house sports event has finally arrived. After months of preparation and active participation, the event took place as planned.
The program began with an introductory speech by the school principal, who officially declared the event open. The Master of Ceremonies (MC) did a fantastic job of welcoming the notable guests and other important personalities in attendance, setting the right tone for the day.
Although today’s activities weren’t overly packed, the inter-house sports event still lasted for about six hours. The first event of the day was the march past, where the different houses showcased their creativity and discipline. Each house put on a colorful and impressive display that was simply captivating. If you had been there, you would have truly enjoyed the performances. I was particularly fascinated by the effort and coordination of each house. The house masters and mistresses did an excellent job in training and supervising their teams, making it a tough challenge for the judges to decide the winner of the march past.
Next came the track events, starting with the 100-meter race. All four houses participated enthusiastically, and the results were as follows: Blue House secured the first position, followed by Pink House (my house), then Green House, with Yellow House finishing last. Similarly, in the 200-meter races for both boys and girls, Blue House emerged victorious again, followed by Pink House in second place, while Yellow and Green Houses took the third and fourth positions respectively.
The relay races were another highlight of the day. In the girls' category, Pink House took first place, followed by Blue House, with Yellow House in third. The boys' relay event was equally competitive, showcasing the determination and teamwork of all the houses.
In the sack race, Yellow House excelled in both the boys’ and girls’ categories, taking the first position. Pink House came in second, followed by Blue House in third, and Green House in fourth place.
The final event of the day was the plank race. This event was highly competitive, but Blue House claimed first place in both the boys’ and girls’ categories. Pink House followed in second place, while Green and Yellow Houses finished third and fourth respectively.
As the day drew to a close, the results of the overall competition were announced. Blue House emerged as the overall winner of the inter-house sports event, securing the first position. Pink House, my house, took second place, followed by Green House in third place, while Yellow House finished in fourth.
The inter-house sports day was truly a memorable event, filled with excitement, teamwork, and healthy competition. The efforts of the students, house masters, and mistresses were evident in the impressive performances throughout the day. Although my house didn’t win overall, we gave our best and enjoyed every moment of the event. It was a day to remember for everyone involved.
I used to be a secondary school teacher and I enjoyed the nostalgic feeling of lining up students and training them up for extra curricular stuffs as this. Well-done.
