In order to enhance students' physical fitness, cultivate their habit of loving sports, strengthen their teamwork spirit and competitive awareness, enrich campus cultural life, and create a positive campus atmosphere, the Primary School Department of our school held the second Sports Festival in October and November 2025.
In the first place, on the afternoon of October 14th, the atmosphere at the sixth grade tug-of-war competition was extremely lively, with cheers ringing out continuously. As the referee's whistle sounded, the participating team members tightly held the long rope and leaned their bodies backward, concentrating their strength into one continuous force. The off-court cheerleaders waved flags and shouted encouragement, whose 'cheer' sounds rose one after another, with each shout becoming the motivation for the team members to keep going. From the group stage to the final, each team adhered to the principle of 'friendship first, competition second', experiencing both intense and evenly-matched confrontations as well as thrilling moments of quick decisive victories. Evidently, not only did this tug-of-war competition enable everyone to relieve their stress through exercise, but also deeply ingrained the concept of 'unity and cooperation' in people's minds.
In the second place, from October 15th to 16th, the basketball competitions for grades four and five were held on the playground of the Primary School Department, during which the basketball players were full of enthusiasm and vitality, sweating profusely on the basketball court. Meanwhile, the contestants cooperated closely, making fast breaks, defending and stealing the ball, presenting a series of exciting scenes. On the other hand, the fans in the stands were deeply moved by the intense and exciting atmosphere of the game, with their cheers filling the entire stadium!
In the third place, on the afternoon of November 3rd, a low-grade students' recess exercise competition was held on the playground of the Primary School Department. As an integral part of campus life, the morning exercises are not merely a form of physical exercise; they are also a concentrated display of campus culture and the characteristics of each class. What's more, this competition is a showcase for the lower grade students' achievements in performing the aerobics, flower ball cheerleading and basketball aerobics. For instance, with the lively music playing, from stretching and chest-expanding to kicking legs and jumping, every movement was precise and standardized. Every time students raised their hands or turned around, they were highly coordinated, fully demonstrating the solid achievements and positive spirit of students' daily training.
In the fourth place, on the afternoon of November 5th, the first-grade parent-child sports event was held on the playground of the Primary School Department. In the parent-child sports event, there were several interesting activities such as 'Two People on One Leg Relay', 'Touching Stones to Cross the River', and 'Pulling Rope Competition', during which parents and children worked closely together. To be concrete, some crossed obstacles hand in hand, some passed the small ball together, and some shouted together in unison while pulling the rope with all their strength. Therefore, the stadium was filled with the sounds of cheering and applause. More remarkably, the innocent smiles of the children contrasted beautifully with the focused expressions of their parents, with every moment of interaction filled with warmth and vitality. Accordingly, children learn to grow and gain experience through sports, feeling the love and companionship of their parents during sports activities. In the future, we will continue to move forward, with home and school working together, advancing hand in hand. Let sports illuminate children's hearts and bring joy to their mood. Let every child shine with brilliance.
Last but not the least, on the morning of November 10th, the awarding ceremony for the second Sports Festival of the Primary School was held on the playground. All the teachers and students gathered at the scene to jointly witness this glorious moment, bringing this sports festival to a successful conclusion.
In a nutshell, this year's campus sports festival was a vibrant and passionate event, which not only enriched students' after-school life, enhanced their physical fitness, but also promoted communication and friendship among classes, thus cultivating students' sense of collective honor and responsibility.
