From whichever team your family hails, there is sure to be excitement about the upcoming Sports Week (11-13 April).

The Nexus Community Group are cheerleading Team Spirit for this event and would love to see learners bring their sparkle through team colours, dress up, posters, pom poms, ribbons etc on the day of their Sports Day. Check the team details out below for inspiration:

Colour - Team Name - Meaning

Blue - Ayer - Water

Green - Tanah - Land

Red - Api - Fire

Yellow - Angin - Wind

During that week the NCG will have a fun Team Spirit display along the walkway on Level 2 for learners to stop by and get a photo with their team’s display. Please do come by! There will also be some posters on Level 1 and at the Bus Bay to spread the community cheer.

We also invite learners to make team posters for display, reflecting their team’s colour and meaning and everything that shouts Team Spirit! These can be dropped to Learner Services by Wednesday 6 April.

Massive thank you to parents and staff who are collaborating on this project and we can’t wait for learner contributions too!

Please see the PHE link in this newsletter for full details about the upcoming Sports Days.
