This year's theme for the Sports' Day was Youth Olympics.
The day began with the students lining up for the parade. The different teams or houses, as we call them here at St Andrew's School, represent the colours of our flag: red, blue, yellow and green.
There are four houses: Bishop house with the red colour, Laurent house with the blue colour, Otterbarry house with the yellow colour and Gregory house with the green colour.
The houses lined up at the centre of the field.
We sang the national anthem before the games started.
The rector Miss Floriane Laventure made her welcome speech.
This was followed by the guest's speech given by Miss Karen Foo Kune. You had the opportunity of meeting her in Nanjing.
A member of our group shared a few words on the city of Nanjing.
Miss Foo Kune was thanked for honouring us with her presence.
We took a few pictures with Miss Foo Kune with the flag of both our schools,
and that of both our countries.
Nanjinglele was also represented.
We also took a few with the teachers working with us on the twinning programme.
A guest performed some tai chi.
There was a musical show before the sports events began.
We hope you enjoy this post. Please leave your comments!!!
