Our Sports Day

What is Sports Day? To most people it is a day in which we celebrate our health and fitness, but here in SEK Qatar it is much more than just that. It is a day in which we teach and are taught about teamwork, and it is a day full of fun activities enjoyed with people and friends from our community. The PYP’s Sports Day was held on Tuesday, January 26th and the MYP’s Sports Day was on Thursday, January 28th. Both students and school staff were divided into four houses, Scorpions (yellow), Oryxes (green), Falcons (orange), and Stingrays (blue) and all the different age groups had to do a series of athletic activities in order to win points for their houses. In the end, the house with the most points won, but as Mrs. Vivian said, “We are all winners”, because everyone did their best and everyone helped to win points. This was an exceptional day and I deeply believe we all look forward to the one next year.
