Celebrating our students: 2024 Achievements in Sports
Read about our students' sporting achievements in 2024, from climbing podiums to basketball courts, and be inspired by their spirit and grit.
“The five S’s of sports training are: Stamina, Speed, Strength, Skill, and Spirit; but the greatest of these is Spirit.” – Ken Doherty
As we approach Children’s Day, we would like to celebrate our students for their participation and achievements in sports in 2024. This year, our students achieved many new milestones in sports and inspired us with their spirit of excellence.
Natalie represented our school in the National Primary Schools Sport Climbing Championship (NPSSC). She qualified and had to compete in two finals events on the same day. In the Bouldering Finals, Natalie missed the medal by a placing. While she was disappointed, she had to put the setback behind and prepare for the Top Rope Finals.
In the Top Rope Finals, Natalie climbed with precision and grit, and scored the 2nd highest total points. Getting there was not easy as she had to dig deep. Natalie chose to believe in herself even after the narrow miss in the Bouldering Finals. She was elated and shared, “I’m so happy I won 2nd place, I didn’t expect this specially when I did not do so good in the preliminary rounds. Now I realized that anything can happen in the finals when you do not give up but persevere!”
Playing doubles in Badminton, Ayden and Aarya worked very well together. While they were disappointed by a narrow loss in their final match, they both look forward to training and growing stronger together. They are motivated to compete, progress and excel in the next NSG.
Minh Anh shares her NSG Basketball experience, “this is my second year representing BRPS. Each time I compete in NSG, I want to play better and contribute to the team. After every match, I learn about my good points and also areas for improvement. I constantly work hard to improve.”
Congratulations to all our student-athletes who achieved new milestones in sports. We are so proud of you. Keep up the spirit of excellence!
