Our annual Sports Day kicked off this morning with an incredibly exciting and unique opening event - an equestrian demonstration! Two of our students, Karin and Tommy, took centre stage to officially start the day. Karin rode Lucky with poise, while Tommy guided Sky with impressive skill and calm, giving our entire school a wonderful demonstration of equestrian talent.

More than just races and scores, Sports Day is a celebration of growth, grit, and teamwork. Every event is a chance to build skills that last far beyond the finish line. 

运动会不仅是竞速与计分的赛场，更是一场关于成长、毅力与团队精神的庆典。每个项目都是一次锻炼技能的机会，而这些技能的收获将远远超越终点线。

Communication and timing are everything. In the obstacle course relay, pairs learn that trust and a perfect handoff are just as important as speed and agility.

沟通与时机决定一切。在障碍接力赛中，搭档们学习到，信任与完美的交接与速度、灵敏同样重要。

Precision meets patience at the target throw station, it’s a lesson in steady nerves, turn-taking, and the shared goal of beating your team’s best score.

精准与耐心的结合。在目标投掷区，这是一堂关于沉着冷静、轮流协作以及共同超越团队最佳成绩的实践课。

In the long jump, it’s all about controlled power. Students learn that one perfect leap, following the rules of the pit, is what makes the distance count.

跳远，关乎对力量的掌控。学生们领悟到，遵循沙池规则的一跃，才是决定有效距离的关键。

Then, the pure explosive energy of the sprint. It’s a focused burst, demanding perfect form and the discipline to run your own race.

短跑，则是纯粹爆发力的展现。它需要全神贯注的冲刺，要求标准的姿态以及专注于自己赛道的纪律性。

For our younger athletes, it starts with balance and control. The egg & spoon and hoop jump races build fine motor skills and spatial awareness, where focus wins over speed.

对于低年级的小运动员们，起点在于平衡与控制。端蛋竞走和套圈跳比赛锻炼了精细动作技能和空间感知能力，在这里，专注力胜过速度。

Building stamina and rhythm, the skipping race challenges our older students with coordination and cardiovascular endurance from start to finish.

跳绳比赛，锻炼耐力与节奏。它挑战着高年级学生的协调能力和从头至尾的心肺耐力。

The true test of heart comes in the middle and long-distance races. Here, athletes learn strategic pacing, resilience, and the mental strength to break down a daunting challenge. 

真正考验意志的，是中长跑。在这里，运动员们学习策略性配速、坚韧不拔的精神，以及分解艰巨挑战的心理力量。

And for power and precision, our hurdlers. They develop the explosive lift, flexible clearance, and rhythmic timing to flow over each barrier.

至于跨栏，则是力量与精准的体现。跨栏者们发展出爆发性的起跨、柔韧的过栏以及有节奏的时机把握，以求流畅越过每道障碍。
