Sports Day

Woah, its finally over! the thing that is driving me crazy this lovely month of April is finally over. Such a wonderful feeling. YAY! yellow house won! WE are the champions this YEAR! the gold drought is over?! we don't know it yet. Though yellow won, i know that the cheerleaders and comm members were really upset over the cheerleading positions. I thought our cheerleading was quite good and should at least get us a place in the top three, unfortunately, our G.O.H., Mdm Cynthia Phua thought otherwise…L There will sure to be lots of stress on yellow house next year, to keep up the good work and get back our first place in cheerleading! Congratulations to all the rest of the houses too! for their respective achievements.

Well, now regarding the family race which Kim, Joanne, Hui Qing, Ed and me organized this year… I suppose, one can say that it was quite smooth… That is probably the viewpoint of someone in the audience. But the period of time when all the relays are going on, and the family race people are assembling at the forum for the briefing, chaos reign…

Firstly, I think there seem to be a miscommunication between the house captains and us, we were expecting 2 from each level from P4 – P6 and out of nowhere, p1 p2 and p3 turn up! that’s scary… I was like: “die! like that how to play!” and the balloons kept bursting! And as a last resort, do you know what we did? we had to cut balloons from the G.O.H. tent… after this I would definitely tell next year’s sports leaders, if the games involved balloons, buy in EXCESS, 10 times, and of GOOD quality… you never know what might happen!
Oh yah, forgot to add this, we had, or maybe its only me, a near heart attack, when it started to drizzle.. we were like gosh, what’s the wet weather plan, not that we don’t have one, we had all forgotten! Everybody started singing: Rain, rain go away…. while compacting themselves into the shelters…

Another event that just seemed so sweet: a blue house primary girl willingly give up her place in the top three to helped her friend who had fallen down in a race. They were less then 2 metres from the finishing line…

Here’s a list of people I like to thank for the family race:

The PE teachers, especially miss lim, mr phee.
All the Sports leaders, especially those that helped out during the race… there was a danger that we do not have enough manpower…
Mrs Ang for helping us print 5 copies of the puzzle and letting it be F.O.C.
Miss Tan s. w. , our NE teacher-in-charge, for helping us in the preparation

last but not least my wonderful team, especially Kim who is the clear-headed one most of the time.

Thanks to anybody and everybody who participated or helped us in one way or another.
