Tariq's First Sports Day - Inspirational Story as a Parent

Yesterday Tariq had his very first Sports Day as a Year One student, alhamdulillah! 

And the Sports Day theme this year was Ancient Civilization! 

Tariq belongs to the Green House and they represents the Viking Civilization and called themselves The Green Vikings! 

Other civilizations were Greek Civilization (Blue House), Chinese Civilization (Red House) and Egypt Civilization (Yellow House). 

How awesome is that?! 

All these years, when Tariq was in kindergarten, he would get a gold medal just for participating. All kids do. 

But this year was different. 

Tariq had to compete for the medals. 

And Tariq’s teachers had brilliantly selected him to compete in the 4 Side Tug-of-War! (Coz Tariq sure cant run fast! ) 

And Tariq has the huge responsibility as the anchor too! 

 Each team had to pull to the side and ring the bell held by a referee at the end of each team. 

So true to the spirit of a Never-Say-Die and Fight-Till-Your-Last-Breath of a Viking Warrior, Tariq and his teammate, Aidan, fought with all their might despite falling down over and over again to win 2 out of the 3 rounds! 

Tariq's winning and final round lasted less than 15 seconds! 

And that landed Tariq and Aidan their first Gold Medal and full points for Green House! 

Alhamdulillah!!The moment Tariq rang the bell, his teachers were so happy! 

One did jump, one hugged both of team immediately, while another carried Tariq on his shoulder and one fanned them with all her might! 

So well done, Tariq and Aidan! Your fighting spirit make us all so proud!! 

And the cherry on the cake was that Tariq’s Green House the Viking Civilization became the Champion for the Brainy Bunch International School Sports Day 2018! 

*Who are you? 
We are the Green Vikings! 
Who are the Green Vikings? 
The King of Sports!! 
What are we gonna do? 
We are going to win no matter what!! 
*The Green House chant
