Dear Parents,
The final sports day for the grades was conducted last Thursday for the Girls section and today the children who came in 1st, 2nd or 3rd in the 50/100m Dash or the Discus/Shot-putt event should have received their medals and certificate in the school assembly. Congratulations to all of you! Well done also to all the children who participated; we know you enjoyed being outdoors and had a welcome break from studies but more than that you exerted yourselves against others and if you didn’t get a prize this time, keep trying harder and maybe it will be you next time. All children who participated should also have received a certificate from the school. A special thanks goes out to the P.E Department but especially to Mr Zaidi, overall in charge of the sports program in the school and also to Mr Essau and Mr Readell who were involved in all three sports days.
