Sportsday 1976
The 1976 Sportsday was one of the grandest that we had, or rather the first grand one, since i joined the school. Principal Mahadzir insisted that we prepared well for the day.
Weeks prior to the big day, we had to literally water the grass every morning - those who had PE (Physical Education), would use the time to carry water in pails to the field from the pipes near the main hall. I remember there was only one long hose for the task, so the others had to bring pails for PE.
AS for the march, we spent 2 weeks practicing it under the hot sun during the afternoon prep i.e. from 3pm - 4pm!! And the results, you can see here how "uniform" we were in our steps:

Rahman(Yellow) house doing the march. Note the barren track - not much grass.
The girl with the long plaits of hair is me :)
Still not much grass to cover the field - just imagine how it would be without our effort to water them daily!!

Kamilah,
I was in Rahman House until they reshuffled it in 1978, to include another house, or was it too, and then I was in Hussein House. See my blog on "Sportsday 1978".
