Interhouse Swimming Gala- by Jordanne McDonald

        
The Pretoria Chinese School’s interhouse swimming gala was held on Friday, January 22, 2016 – a cloudy day that turned into a day of fun in the sun. The Tigers sadly was the only house that dressed up for the event and showed off their festive dress as Hawaiian Hoola Dancers. At the end of the day the Lions all ended up being painted blue!

At last the swimming began and the pool area was a beehive of activity! Everyone was in good spirits and supported their teams at the top of their voices. Big and small were in the pool giving it their best – some with more success than others but the enthusiasm was never lacking. The Dragons were victorious in the gala with the Lions a close second, and the Tigers third, but everyone had fun.

The race of the teachers against the students was loudly encouraged and supported, and although the teachers won the race, the students put up a good fight. Coach Nicky then had a race against one of the high school boys known as Henry “The Fish”, and only narrowly lost.


The annual interhouse gala at PCS was, as always, well supported by pupils, teachers and parents alike and everyone had a lot of fun. We are all looking forward to the event next year!
