Sports Competition.

This year, the HOPE school took part in a sports competition. We competed against 17 other Schools in a range of sports inclusing Kabadi, Coco, Football and Athletics. As it was our first year in the competition, we were very nervous yet excited and the children couldn't wait to take part.The girls Coco was a great success. The girls flew through each round and played outstandingly. They won each game and won the first place position.

The girls were extremely happy. As you can see above, the headteacher hands them the first place award shield. Below is the all of the girls Coco players along with their certificates.
