sports day 2010

Okay, so yesterday we had our sports day for Maktab Sains of 2010. It was held in Balapan Stadium. It started off with aerobics led by Sir Izam, Sir Khairul, Sir Azlan and all the Yr 7 students. Teachers were asked to do the aerobics on the track while the students on the field. After that we were asked to go to our respective sports houses. Then, we watched the march passes by all the houses. Next were field performance. And then we watched the activity took place which were mostly track event. I love the race between teachers. It was really entertaining and I enjoyed watching them. I am sure that the other students too because as the teachers were running, they were all shouting to support them. Overall, I enjoyed every moment of yesterday.
