The glowing morning sun rose on Bishan Stadium, home of Singapore Premier League Champions, the Lion City Sailors, the venue where records would be challenged, and voices of the supporters heard in this lively and energetic sports cauldron.

As the near 5000-seater stadium emits an atmosphere of excitement and hope, classes turned up in various colours and paraphernalia to ensure that their own classmates competing hear their cheers, and strive to perform beyond the ordinary.

On top of it all, ÃûæÂÖ±²¥ Sports Day fosters a healthy competitive sporting culture, that serves to strengthen class and school spirit. With HOD PE CCA Mr Alvin Yeo covering commentary alongside 5B1’s Isaac Hoon for the second year in the running, the event commenced to much aplomb.

This year is the year of the dark horses, and the younger stallions prevailed. In the Lower Secondary category, Calista Tan from 1CE, who is currently in the SP-CCA Athletics team, completed a double, defeating close rival Ho Jia Xin from 2CN in a tight contest.

In the Upper Secondary category, 3AY’s very own Ashley Su has cemented her position as the sprint queen when she took gold in both the 100m and 200m events, breaking both records. On top of that, Ashley shaved 4 seconds off the previous 200m sprint record, coming in at 28.22 Secs.

Our Principal Mr Michael then capped off the wonderful event by applauding the efforts of the various classes in bringing up class spirit by cheering on their classmates with poms-poms, support placards and even banner flags of their classes.

We look forward to the next edition in 2027!
