Secondary School House Sports Day Extravaganza 2024

On September 6, the Student Government hosted its first official event of the school year - the sports day.

This year, we prepared four exciting games for our student body:

1. Infinite Volleyball: Just like regular volleyball, but with no limit on touches per side - pass as much as you want! The only rule is no player can hit the ball more than twice in a row, and you can use any part of your body.

2. Relay Competition: This event challenges both your balance and teamwork skills:
   • Acupressure Mat: Stand on a mat and move it forward under your feet as you make your way to the finish line.
   • Balloon Pop: With a balloon squeezed between your knees, clip-clop your way to the finish line without letting it pop!
   • Pair Balance: Two teammates with their feet tied together race to the destination in sync.
   • Bunny Hop: Three teammates jump forward while wearing sacks - first one to the end wins!
 
3. Handball: In this fast-paced game, you use only your hands to pass, catch, and shoot the ball. No stepping into the goal area, and don’t forget to dribble as you move!
4. Buzkashi Showdown: Players race on scooters to grab the “Buz” (a big animal doll) and toss it into their opponent’s scoring circle. It's all about speed, strategy, and a little bit of chaos!
 

Overall, the Sports day was a huge success, and we received many positive comments from students in different grade levels. Congratulations to this event’s winner - RED HOUSE! Please stay in tune for our next important event: the Monster Mash!
