The first competition was Hula Hoop Relay, the traditional game of sports carnival. All the 4th and 5th grade teachers also formed a team in one line, competing with students from 16 classes. The audience could also witness the live situation through the big screen in the stadium, which made the activity more exciting.

We held another special session for the sports carnival at Shanghai High School ice rink. Some students from SHSID demonstrated their ice-skating learning outcomes with amazing performances on ice. After some practices, students have already mastered certain advanced movements and change of array, including C glide, double outer edge spin, Axel jump, etc. With their beautiful dances, students manifested their passion for ice sports, impressing every audience member present.

In the indoor stadium, students took part in plenty of teamwork activities with their classmates, such as The Hare and the Tortoise and Obstacle Relay. There was also a variety of competitions that required collaboration among students, including Roller-Coaster Relay, Ice Cream Toss and Ball Control Relay, which required focused attention as well as students’ teamwork abilities.

From the various sports games, our students gained happiness and confidence, improved teamwork abilities and developed a sense of group honor. Let’s look forward to the following sports week activities and enjoy the fun together!
