Celebrating YOG

Dear class,

We celebrated YOG yesterday. School hours were deliberately changed from morning to afternoon so that all of us will be able to witness the passing of the torch and celebrate YOG. However, due to the heavy downpour, it was delayed and as a result, we missed the passing of the torch. Nevertheless, we had quite a lot of fun playing the games.
