It was that eagerly-anticipated time of the year again when the community of R.E.A.L Schools, Cheras Campus come together to celebrate its annual Sports Carnival. Students came proudly clad in their respective House colours of Red, Blue, Green and Yellow; raring to go and give their all for a fun sporting cause.With this year’s theme being famous cartoons, the House mascots appeared in the form of famous characters such as The Incredibles, Smurfs, Minions and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. No prizes for guessing which characters represented which House! Decorating the House booths and mascots with recyclable items also went a long way in spreading the event’s ‘Go Green’ environmental message amongst both students and visitors alike.
The fun and festivities continued with games such as the Telematch, Swimming Gala and Tug-of-War. The Tug-of-War in particular, was the event’s fitting finale as it stole the show with a display of strategy, spirit and strength. The prize-giving ceremony then saw trophies being presented to Houses adjudged to have the best march past, best booth decoration and best cheerleading team. The biggest win of the day however, belonged to Green House as they were crowned ‘Overall Champions’.
