On 18th June 2016
Sadili’s Girl Power Clubs Africa held its Sports Day. Despite the bitterly cold
weather, the day turned out to be great fun and everyone thoroughly enjoyed
themselves. A total of 67 girls from three schools i.e. Nazarene Primary,
Karama Primary and St. Catherine Primary participated in the event.
Being the end of the week that saw the Day of
the African Child being celebrated, the day started with the girls having a life skills session on Child Rights where they
discussed both among themselves and with our social educators various aspects of
children’s rights and child abuse. To keep the session interesting and
interactive, songs and fun games were integrated into it. This made the atmosphere in the room lively and cheerful the entire time.
After the life skills session, the
sports began. Everyone threw themselves into the field where various games
including soccer, rugby and basketball were played.The girls were divided into 3 groups
i.e. Tausi, Lion and Tiger and they were so organized that by the end of the
event, everyone had played each game. This was followed by a fitness session
led by one of our coaches, Ms. Adongo.
The day culminated with a delicious lunch that we all enjoyed!
As Sadili staff, we had as much fun as the girls did playing the games and interacting with each other. It's so important for us to be involved in the community and in young people's lives because it influences us to see the rewards and the excitement behind playing sports.
