Year 5,6,7 and 8 students recently took place in the Private Schools Soccer Tournament.
Congratulations to all students who participated. One year 7 student, Ceira Kennedy reflected on the day writing the following piece.
I went to the Soccer Tournament on Thursday 10th of
March. It was located in the Football Federation of Samoa. When I arrived I was
worried that I was going to let my team (V.B.S. 1) down. I was standing on the
field of our first round. Anything could happen. I looked into the eyes of
Robert Louis Stevenson School girls. We had the same goal. WIN FOR THE SCHOOL!
The whistle blew. It was intense. The sun burned bright on our innocent faces.
It was as if the sun was roasting us for his dinner. One goal was scored to
them - not a good sign. The whistle blew. It was over. We lost. We huddled
together. We had seven more chances to win. We were only at the beginning.
We had a hydration break and then we were back. From that
point on we won every game. Victory was very close. Our last game was finished.
Now to see who will get some praise. The boys were called. A job well done to
them. The girls were announced. Result: my team WON FIRST PLACE!!! Our effort
had been paid off. It was a triumphant moment. We were so happy that we smiled
from ear to ear for the rest of the boiling day.
