This year is a challenging year where outdoor activities are concerned. The country has been encountering high API and to conduct a cross country event is a feat. Nevertheless when funds have been collected, the run has to be honoured.
The hazy conditions in June caused the school to postpone the Jogathon till today and it was not an easy decision when a concerned parent called up early in the morning to warn us of another threatening haze.
But the show has to go on.
Today is a special day for the school is also celebrating her countdown to the Merdeka day.
With flags flying high and reminding all of our love and respect for our beloved nation, we took it upon ourselves that this day is to be remembered.
The children were sporting as they came in high spirits to celebrate and honour their pledge to the doners of the run. They also came to confirm their love for Malaysia.
All children are taught the right attitudes and hopefully they will pass them down to the next generation.
Traditional dances and choruses to celebrate ethnicity and culture took our imaginations away and we were awed by their performances. Glad they displayed love and respect for one another.
They came together to sing patriotic songs; telling one another of the deeds of the past and how the country has brought hope and means to her people. They sang out their hearts and many were touched and reminisced pn our beloved land. We have to keep ourselves together and love in the right spirit.
That's Jon who has lost quite a bit of weight; what with his Indian dancing stunts and the cross country race. That's teacher Bodjit with her charming smile all ready to declare and catch the winners of the run.
That's the winner among the boys; Kiran I think and Alya of the girls' section.
Attractive prizes for the Jogahthon collection; the children are very fortunate indeed. I-phones, cameras, mountain bikes, and a motor bike ! Seafield has one of the best runs in town.
That's Victor and Colin; both collected enough funds for their special prizes and all thanks to supportive parents too.
Pei Er has her mother to thank for; a hardworking mama deserves a hardworking daughter too. I am sure she will do her mama proud in the SPM exam.
That's the chairman of the run, Mr. Chong with the grand prize winner; his son.
Indeed, like father like son.
Congratulations to the pair!
Now, this is an important box with coupons for the special grand draw.
Who is the owner of this grand prize?
Yes, Mr. Selva.
Yes, the happy winner receiving the grand prize. Hope he remains happy for a long while.
All's well that ends well.
So the beautiful bloom speaks volumes.
We celebrated out Merdeka day, had our Merdeka run, many won prizes and we have completed our pledge to the public.
Thank you dear God for a good day.
