SPORTS DAY

I was over joyed to find out that sports day lasted three days at my school! The first day consisted of the 'opening ceremony'- which nearly topped the Olympics in London. The teachers didn't sleep the night before as they were too busy setting up smoke machines, rehearsing songs and cooking food. The headteacher invited the Chairman of Suphan Buri FC (the son of the former president of Thailand), and some other local 'VIP'S' aka ballers from the area. It was an amazing morning, the kids all had a role to play and got to dress up and eat ice cream all morning before the girls football started in the afternoon- this was equally as entertaining with them screaming and falling over the ball for most of the game, it was like watching myself play!
