PAGE 5                     2020 SPORTS DAY    As another annual Sports Day has come again, we compete to the best of our abilities.  This Sport's Day was not the best, yet we gave it all we could.    Senegal came first position in the March Past with a good start. Nevertheless, the  scores from the field events a few days before were not too exciting as we came  second place. Many candidates had gotten foul throws and this counted against  Senegal House finally tally.    As the races began we were all at the edge of our seats watching closely trying very  hard not to blink. From Benue to Congo, and Senegal to Volta, it could be said that  the day was an interesting day. However, after our previous win of the Sport's Day  and being the defending champions, most of us came in too confident.    For the shuttle relay, we came 3rd due to the baton falling down for an uncountable  amount of times, but that didn't stop us from trying. When the actual races started,  each house paid close attention to the racers in action. Some fainted, had muscle pull  and got injured. But like the saying is, \"No pain, no gain\".    Senegal House came 3rd overall on sports day. We will get our trophy back next year  from Volta house who emerged as this year's winner. Congratulations Volta House.    - Max Lochman (Year 10 Senegal)            Respect Responsibility Resourcefulness            THE REGENT DIGEST  VOLUME 8 ISSUE 20

PAGE 41             CRAZY WEEKEND II - DAY 2                     MY CRAZY WEEKEND ADVENTURE    Crazy Weekend at The Regent Secondary School was a wonderful time for me. At first, I  was really scared because I was going away from my parents though with mixed feelings  leaving my older sister behind. This adventure made me make new amazing friends and  meet people with different talents. On the first night, I played basketball which I enjoyed  and learnt some new skills. My buddy, Debra, helped me feel so comfortable. I played  lots of games with my roommates and also enjoyed the sleep time.    On Saturday evening, we had Football and then the Crazy Costume Night which was very  interesting. We also had a very good parte after parte dance time with delicious goodies.  It was really fun. On Sunday afternoon, the weekend came to an end. I will never forget  this crazy weekend and I look forward to resuming in September 2020 as a student of The  Regent Secondary School.    -Ameena Mukhtar             Respect Responsibility Resourcefulness             THE REGENT DIGEST  VOLUME 8 ISSUE 19
