With the weather looking somewhat dubious, Y4-6 headed off to Lei Cheung Uk Swimming Pool in Sham Shui Po on Tuesday for the annual Primary Swimming Carnival. Although we all got a little wet everyone was very positive and a great time was had by all. Students were highly enthusiastic in their participation and support for their houses.
The event is divided in to three components.
- Competition – the highest point score for placings 1st, 2nd and 3rd in all the events.
- Participation – the highest number of students that enter all events from each house.
- Spirit – the way a house gets behind their team, the lunch time chants, and respecting the venue, staff and environment.
The results were as follows:
Competition
- 1st place: Purple
- 2nd place: Green
- 3rd place: Red
- 4th place: Yellow
- 5th place: Blue
Participation
- 1st place: Blue
- 2nd place: Red
- 3rd place: Purple
- 4th place: Yellow & Green
Spirit
- 1st place: Green
- 2nd place: Red
- 3rd place: Yellow
- 4th place: Purple
- 5th place: Blue
A big thanks to Lawrence Wilkinson, Gary Chan and the Primary PE team for their clockwork organisation that ensured that the program was fun, participatory for all and smoothly run.
I would also like to acknowledge the many parents who attended the carnival. Your support and encouragement was fantastic.
