On Wednesday morning, 26 January, Union High School held a memorable ๐ฆ๐๐ก๐๐ข๐ฅ ๐๐ก๐ง๐๐ฅ๐๐ข๐จ๐ฆ๐ ๐๐ง๐๐๐๐ง๐๐๐ฆ meeting.
The blistering heat did not deter the excited competitors, as they walked out proudly in their house colours, chanting cheers, eager to push themselves on both the track and on the field.
Thanks are extended to the House Captains of Daly – Ijabulele Mtwazi and Keratile Nqabeni – as well as those of Arnott – Bubele Thibini and Yandisa Sinyanya – for ensuring that spirits remained high throughout the day.
Competition was fierce but fun and several ๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ฃ๐๐ค๐ช๐ฉ ๐ฅ๐๐ง๐๐ค๐ง๐ข๐๐ฃ๐๐๐จ were delivered on the day:
