In every school physical exercise is an important as a learning subject. So children are encouraged to participate in schools. Annul sports meet in school is meant for pupils to compete and win prizes. This will help them to develop their physical skill in sports and games.
Our annual school sports day was held on Friday, 11th May 2007. It was held at the Hougang Stadium. We must be there at 7.30a.m. The guest of Honour of this event is Mrs. Cheok-Lim Jit Nuan. On that day, it was a raining day. As a result of the rain, the event was postponed until the rain is over.
At 8.45a.m., we sang the National Anthem, Pledge and the School Song. Just after that, the Principal talked to us. The most interesting part in the speech is “I do not know what colors shirts I should wear? If I wear Red shirt, the Red house would be happy but the other houses would not be happy. If I wear Green shirt, the Green house would be happy, but the Red, Yellow and the Blue would not be happy. I thought for a long time. Finally, I decided to wear a white colors shirt and every one would be happy!” After the speech, the competitors from different houses march past us.
Then, it is time for the Fun Race for the Primary 3 and Primary 4!!! Then, it is the 50M Hurdles Primary 3 girls and primary 3 boys. The boys, who are sitting right behind me, were very excited in the events. They could be the announcers!
