Feeding the Body and Soul Through Sport and Music

19 November 2012

Recent musical and sporting events are a testament to the vibrant Aga Khan Academy community.

The Musical Showcase held on Thursday evening, 15 November, was a powerful display of musicianship and talent by our music students. The concert had individual piano performances, solo, duet and ensemble singing, and violin pieces, from a wide range of students from Year 2 to DP. The short evening ended with an energetic and uplifting performance of Wantata by the Senior School Choir although the audience would willingly have listened to such music making for much longer.  

Then, on Friday afternoon, the inter-house competitions were held; a fantastic afternoon of sporting prowess, competition, collaboration and team spirit. Sports participated in included squash, table tennis, swimming, tag rugby and basketball. The competition was won by Hawks, followed by Eagles and Falcons tied in second place, and Ravens in fourth place.

Congratulations to all those who participated in both events; continuing proof of the dynamic school community we enjoy. Special thanks also to the staff, not only those who tutor these students, but also to those who volunteer their time to help support the events, creating a positive and exciting environment for all involved.
