CHARISMATIN INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL HOLDS A HISTORIC INTER-HOUSE SPORTS COMPETITION, AS YELLOW HOUSE CLINCHES THE FIRST POSITION. | Shakiru Seidu.


It was a day worthy to be much remembered as the students and staff members of Charismatin International School Gbaga, Ikorodu, Lagos State, gathered in their numbers at the School Academy Sports Ground, Ikorodu, to witness the 2024 Bi-annual Inter-House Sports Competition. The event was exclusively put together by the Sports Committee to showcase the Academy’s love and enthusiasm for the sporting activities.
In a brief speech to declare the event open, the Proprietress of the School, Revd. (Mrs) Abiodun Martin Akinsanya, said that sporting activities have brought mutual understanding and cooperation between nations, cities and villages, even nations that are at war with each other often come together to perform and exhibit their physical talent in sports. She therefore urged the students and their coaches involved in any sport to imbibe the team spirit and to promote peace and co-existence even after the contest.
"It is no longer news that Sports is a globally acceptable catalyst central to the total education of the child any where in the world. This is because for the cognitive development of the child to have positive outcome," Akinsanya opined.
MegaXpression Magazine recalled that prior to the main event, there was a heat competition for all Houses to make their selections to be able to compete favourably, after which it became a challenging contest for students as each House competed for the winning trophy. The House with the highest number of medals emerged to the first position, followed by others in that order.
By all accounts, in this year 2024, the Yellow House beat all the other Houses to remain in the 1st position with a total of 14 Gold, 10 Silver and 7 Bronze medals. The 2nd position went to Red House with 10 Gold, 8 Silver and 6 Bronze medals. Blue House were in 3rd position with 6 Gold, 5 Silver and 14 bronze medals, while Green House took 4th position with 5 Gold, 12 Silver and 8 Bronze medals.
The Organising Chairman thanked both the coaches and committee members for their efforts in putting on the event. He however urged the students to accept the results in good spirit and remember that there must be a winner at the end of every tournament, but to endeavour to become the stars they aspired to be collectively and individually.
