Alhamdulillah, it has been such an amazing month. For the past few weeks, the school has been working very hard to prepare towards the sports day. The school teachers and staff members have been putting in 200% effort in ensuring that the students' sports day goes well...
...and masyaallah, what a tremendous sports day we had!
A sporting affair with friends, teachers, and families!
The event was at the Panasonic National Sports Centre, Shah Alam. Registration of students started at 7AM in the morning, and the students then straight away proceeded to get ready for the marching event by respective houses - Summer, Spring, Autumn, and Winter.
The venue was nicely set up for the big day
It was a beautiful sunny morning and the sports day started off extremely well. The students and teachers marched into the stadium according to sports houses, clad in creatively hand-made costumes and props while chanting motivational cheers.
Team Summer - We Are Bright!
Team Spring - We Are Fresh!
Team Autumn - We Are Bold!
Team Winter - We Are Cool! (and hello Sister Nina!)
Once the marching is done, students sang the national and state anthems. This was then followed by a speech by the school director, sports day pledge, and an awesome performance by the secondary school boys, and then all four teams showcased their house performance.

After a 10-minute break, it was time for some finals for athletics and also telematch for the smaller students. Now let the games begin!

At the end of the day, everyone had a great time - it was an event that brought the staff members, teachers, students, and the community together. Everyone held a stronger bond with each other by going through good times and hard times - and it united the school, inshaa Allah.
