Faction Carnival

At last.......Faction Carnival that my children were excitedly looking forward was successfully done on 5th September 2008. The event was held from 9.30a.m. till 3.00p.m. There was slight confusion on my children faction, last term they were in Gold faction but this term they were said to be in Blue faction, even the teacher were confused, once they were told to go to Gold faction but their name were not in the list then they were put in blue faction. But the children were ready with blue faction shirts. Whatever it was, they were still in enthusiastic sport spirits...Go loves go! In the morning they competed in the tabloid sports such as passing ball, throwing the ball ( like the shot put), long jump etc. For Pre-Primary children they played the simple game such as throw the ball in the circle, running. In the afternoon they started the athletic event, 100 meters, 200 meters and so on. At the end of the competition, the winner was Gold faction with 556 marks, followed by Blue faction with 504 marks and Red faction with 456 marks. Syarafi won 5 gold and 1 silver; Zarif won 1 gold, 4 silvers and 1 fourth place; 'Iffah won 2 gold, 2 silvers and 2 bronzes; and Hasif won 1 gold and 4 silvers. The school not given out the medal or cup or presents like in Malaysia, they only gave out the colourful ribbon stated the winner place and pinned on the shirts, but the children were more than happy.

The good thing was Syarafi and Zarif managed to fast until Maghrib eventhough they tired out themselves during the day. Unfortunately 'Iffah cannot make it, she fast until 1.00p.m. only, Hasif as usual until lunch time.
