Sports Day

Yesterday, Hoohlo Primary school had sports day. But this was not like a sports day in the UK just for the school. Children from 14 primary schools around Maseru competed against each other in athletics. The winners go through to a bigger competition next week. Most of the events were running races and almost every child ran barefoot.

We needed a place big enough for everyone to fit in, so we went to the national stadium. Some of the children from school who were not competing came along to cheer on their classmates.

All our students did very well and were given big cheers in assembly this morning. Some of them won their events, so they get to compete again next Friday. Fingers crossed for them!
