Peter Yam and I were the MC. I attended the event the first time with my family and we thoroughly enjoyed the day together with 90 other participants (half of which are small children). My wife looked forward to the day as it promised to be a great departure from the normal "yum cha and shopping routine" on a Sunday. It was also great for the children to have the opportunity to meet and participate in track and field events with their young peers. I am certain that parents found it to be most enjoyable to see their little ones take part in the events organized by the Athletic Club of DBS. Many rolls of films were "murdered" on this day by proud parents to capture the moments during which their sons and daughters pass the finish line. It was also great for those of us who don't manage to get much exercise to flex our muscles and exercise our lungs.

Other than track and field events, the Athletic Club also organized family games to ensure that no one miss out on the fun. For those of you who missed the event, make sure you come next year. There is no better way to spend a Sunday than to spend it with your family and fellow classmates on the school grounds.

Special thanks to the teachers of DBS, student members of the Athletic Club and DBS timing squad for their contribution to this very successful family event.
