Sport Day

     

An Excited Day!!

      Every school celebrates its Sports Day and all the children look forward to. My school Sekolah Menengah Agama Nilai has its Sports Day every year sometime in the month of July. When this day is about to come, there appears to be a lot of activity in the school. Weeks before the Sports Day, children start giving their names for different events, and then, after the school hours, practices start. The children, who do not participate in any events, get other duties of the like of making  lists of games and participants. On 1 July 2012 Sekolah Menengah Agama Nilai had a sport day. I woke up in the early morning to get ready to go to USIM's stadium. All students must get ready at 7:00 a.m to go to USIM's stadium. After an hour we all arrived at the USIM's stadium. We started the event about 7:30 a.m. until 12:30.



       The day starts with the usual Assembly and then, all of us are instructed to go to our house places. All the houses got their own mascot. For an example green house was a Soldier, yellow house was a Harimau Malaya, red house was a Thor and blue house was a Captain Muslimin. Next, the marching begun and then we had a silat performance by our headmaster Mr. Jamil. After that, one by one the events take place in a very well disciplined manner and the winners listed and made to stand on the Victory Stand and cheered by their team houses. For me I was in a green house so I cheered for my house.

         The games and sports last for about five hours and then comes the most interesting moment of appreciating the winners by awarding them gifts and prizes. This is the ultimate moment of pleasure for winners when loud clapping and shouting of cheers, they get their rewards for their good work - from the headmaster. After all thw winners had been said it was time to say which house was the winner. So, the teacher said the fourth place was yellow house, third place was blue house and second place was the red house. That means GREEN HOUSE was the WINNER. My friends and I was sooo happy that my house won again for this year !!!



Lastly, we went home to take a rest after a tiring day after all. Some students went home with happiness and some with sadness. It's okay as long we all try hard to get our house to win. As the saying goes, hardworking is the way to success!! Even though I am not a very good in games or sports, I just love this day and look forward to it through the year. The thrill, the excitement, and then, the pleasure of winning are all moments worth seeing and enjoying. I really enjoyed on the sport day !!   :)
