With the countdown reaching its crescendo, students, parents, and teachers surged towards the centre of the arena. Their hands gripped water guns and balloons. Amid a flurry of excitement, they engaged in a fierce battle for points, fiercely defending against relentless attacks from all directions. In a matter of seconds, the once arid surroundings transformed into a soaking-wet spectacle. Each ripple resonated like a gentle melody, accompanied by the rhythmic percussion of splashing water. It was a sight to behold, a cathartic release from the burdens of everyday life. It was a quintessential summer moment, where every droplet brought relief and every splash ignited pure joy.
The Sports Festival embodied the core values of Olympism: Excellence, Respect, and Friendship. ISA Liwan students embraced these values through fair competition, pursuing excellence while experiencing the joy of physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
