It O
was a day that started with great expectations. At 8:30 in the
morning, students assembled in the Hall for the Opening Ceremony.
The Hall was packed with teachers and a large number of students.
The FP Director, Mr. Faisal welcomed the gathering and the Deputy
Director, Mr. David engaged the students with a game of Kahoot. The
quiz was about Oman. It was very competitive and enjoyable. After this,
students went to various venues for other competitions and activities.
The students of Level 2 and 3 had another game of Kahoot which seemed
much easier than the one on Oman. There were games in the IT section.
It was very interesting. There was a Bake sale that was organized in the
courtyard. This sale was meant to raise money for charity. Students helped
the teachers in selling food. The collection from this sale was given to
the Autism Centre. There was a speaking competition for students of
Levels 2 and 3. There were puzzles and riddles in Math and a game of
Jeopardy for Level 1 students. There were some fun games conducted by
the English Club in the courtyard. It was amusing to see students blind-
folded and trying to tail a camel. There was a game for teachers, too.
It was good to see the sportive side of teachers. They played a game of
popping balloons tied to the ankles. It was fun to see them running around
to save themselves from getting picked. There was a workshop organized
by the Students at Risk Committee that was much appreciated. Finally,
there was a closing ceremony where prize winners from the competitions
were honoured with certificates of merit. All in all, it was a memorable
fun –filled day.
