Practice makes Perfect

Sports day is upon all the local junior high schools in the Himeji district soon. There's a bit of uncertainty as to whether it will go ahead as scheduled, because it might rain (it's typhoon season now) or it may be the case that too many students will have the dreaded flu. But anyway, preparations are in full swing.

First on the agenda? Injury management, aka picking the pebbles out of the gravel on the sports ground.

We could be here all day!

Next was multiple rehearsals of the sports day ceremony formalities - parading the school banner, standing still, raising the flag, standing in formation, marching to a whistle beat, standing and listening, running to position, hats on, hats off - all the important things for sports day success.

Practicing the ceremony, but I'm standing in the shade - hee, hee!

Until next practice,
