KLISS PRIMARY SWIM MEET 2014 - A TIS Parents' Association supported event

Saturday, November 22, 2014

The day started bright (well, not quite bright yet for those who were here super duper early!) and early for participants, parent supporters and staff of the much anticipated event hosted by Tenby International School, Setia Eco Park...

the KLISS (Kuala Lumpur International School Sport) PRIMARY SWIM MEET 2014!

This year, the participating schools were ISP (The International School @ParkCity), BSKL (British School Kuala Lumpur), Nexus (Nexus International School, Putrajaya) and Tenby International School! 

The KLISS Primary Swim Meet kickstarted with bone-chilling-water swim warm-ups, followed by a welcome speech by Kenneth Lim. The whistle blew and they were off to a good start...!

Some of the events were keenly contested by the schools and you could hear loud and enthusiastic cheers from the crowd; each parent cheering for their own child or school! It was indeed exciting! 

The Swim Meet culminated in medal and trophy presentations for the participants. 

In overall standings, ISP took home the gold trophy, BSKL the silver, and Tenby...bronze! 

Well done to all swimmers and winners!

Food and Beverage was a TIS Parents' Association supported event. We had Sid's BBQ, dishing up Hot Dogs and Gourmet Cheeseburgers. A special thank you to Sid's for their support and contribution of sales to our PA fund! We also invited Royal Post (the mobile coffee truck) to cater to the caffeine-addicts and chocoholics in us! Sweet treats were in store for fans of home-baked cakes, courtesy of mums who spent Friday night toiling in their kitchens! A very warm thank you for your generosity and time today! Proceeds of sales go to the PA fund. 

We hope everyone had a fantastic time at the event today...we sure did! :-)

PARENTS vs TEACHERS FOOTBALL MATCH

PARENTS THRASHED 6-1 IN MAIDEN FOOTBALL MATCH!

Thursday, 19 June 2014, 4:00 p.m.

The day where history was made! It was Tenby's maiden friendly football match...parents vs teachers. Timely too, as it was football season. Football. It is a game that at some point, anoints almost every child in the country, and captivates many others around the world.

It was a hot, slightly hazy day but spirits were high. The teachers looked mean and mighty in black! Parents team, dressed in white jersey and black shorts looked like they were ready to play top-flight football. Looks can be deceiving, it is often said and I guess, to some extent, this was true in our case! 

Warming-up before the game

Peeeeeet!!! The referee's (Surprise! Surprise! It was Mr Andrew Auster, our sporting sportsman!) whistle blew to signal the start of the game and they were off! Barely 20 minutes into the first half, the parents' team had to call in a few students to replace some of their players' aching limbs! The teachers proved to be the fitter and stronger team and they emerged winners. Despite Year 6 student, Navjoth (as stand-in for the parents) scoring a goal, it was too late! We were thrashed 6-1!

Errr, round "table" discussion, eh, parents?

One for the album...Premier League in the making?

Game in progress!

Well, it was obvious we were nowhere near World Cup standard but it was all in good, clean fun! And I'm sure with more training, there will be greater things to come! I will be looking forward to more spectator sports between the school and parents, or even between the children and their teachers. Yes, spectator only, because I don't fancy getting my face cosmetically bruised by a flying ball!
