It is just before the discussions on the upcoming Sports Day, children are all excited and getting geared up for their drill practises. The 4 year olds are all talking about sports, what all new sports they want to learn, showing off their cartwheeling skills…when they were asked the question by the facilitator, “How about we write a poem about our Sports Day?”

So poetry seemed rather appropriate here to reinforce the things we had learned and believed about ourselves with regards to sports. Plus, we can always recite it wherever we go, and to give ourselves a little boost!)

“Awesome! What do you want the title to be?”
“Sports Day!”, came the reply, once again, almost unanimously. The below is the poem they created together with a little help of the facilitator,
