Four foundations schools within Region One in KMC last Sunday converged at Marina International School to take part in a one-day Fun Day sporting athletic meeting.  

The Fun Day sporting activity was organised by the Sports for National Private Schools, SNAPS in the country.

The four foundation schools in Region One, namely SIBEC, Apple tree, Marina International and Zenith took part in the Fun Day athletic.

Speaking to the Pointsport immediately after the end of the Fun Day, the Chairman of the Sports for National Private Schools, Alieu B. Jeng said this is the first time his association has organised athletic sporting activities, adding that last year they held a one-day awareness football activity.

According to Jeng, the SNAPS athletic activities targeted children under the age of six years old.

Jeng said his association is planning to host another inter-schools football event next term from thirteen years and below. He said the brain behind the whole event was the headmistress of Marina International School, Ms. Jobe Manneh.
