Football Competition - P5 & P6 Boys

Brunei Junior Sports League (BJSL) competitions are events that our students have the opportunity to participate in. For a lot of our students, BJSL is a highlight of their school experience.

Last week, issues with transport arrangements resulted in our P5 and P6 boys unexpectedly missing this planned opportunity. Mr Nathan and Mr Rob shared in their disappointment at being left behind, while the girls and P7 boys team went ahead to compete at ISB in Bandar.

At Panaga School we teach Personal Qualities, it is through life experiences that we get to practice such teaching. Our P5 and P6 boys, while disappointed, practiced resilience and adapted. While they missed out on their inter school football competition, Mr Nathan and Mr Rob took the two teams left behind to the multipurpose court for a 5 aside football match, with a treat at Serikandi Cafe offered afterwards.

An investigation into why this transport issue has presented for the second time recently with BJSL travel arrangements has been conducted, with future arrangements now planned for with direct contact with the transport provider. We are hopeful to avoid any such future incidents.
