On the 26th of May, a team of 26 students from Primary School competed in the Primary FOBISIA Games in Bangkok. Energy levels and enthusiasm were really high throughout, and all of the students and parents encouraged each other during the competition.
Students were involved in four sports: Tee Ball, Football, Athletics, and Swimming. KTJ did very well in all of the sports, especially Tee Ball, where we participated in the final round of the tournament.We also performed really well in Athletics and Swimming where we won many medals. The girls did really well in the sprinting events. During the football tournament, all teams showed great sportsmanship, teamwork as well as some amazing football skills. In addition to showing off their skills, they made lots of new friends from other schools.
We also enjoyed meeting Commonwealth Medallist and three-time Olympian Finalist James Goddard, who presented the medals to the students. Overall, there was an excellent performance from KTJ.. Well done, everyone!
