9th MALAYSIA Soduku Championship 2018



 ( Round 2 - 30 minutes )

( As in Chess and Scrabble, a mix of all ages )



When Faiz informed that he'll be representing the school in a new event, my mind was thinking - "What is he scheming now?"**.  So when he said the new event is Soduku, I can literally hear my own sigh of relief as knowing Faiz all of his involvements will set us back thousands.


Thinking the school had selected him to participate in a small/minor event, I thought should be interesting good experience for him. I was wrong as the event was the National Championship and participants from as far away as Terengganu came to participate. The organisers even brought in a Soduku Master from Japan to not only give the prizes away but also to teach newer game formats like slithering and shikaku.


**Note: My wife and I are always 'fearful' of what Faiz is up to in school, now especially after his proposal to be involved in yachting thanks to a schoolmate's involvement in MSSM 2018 and a neighbour's offer to go yachting in Port Dickson.

BRONZE at 1st OWS Attempt - 1.5km Category, Port Dickson OWS 2018 - Challenge 2

( hAnA and her Team mates at the PD OWS-Challenge 2 Finishing Line )


hAnA's 1st attempt at Open Water Swimming or, OWS at the Port Dickson OWS 2018 - Challenge 2 concluded with an unexpected bonus - bronze medal in the 10-19 category.

Not much was expected in her first foray into OWS, especially since she opted for the longer 1.5km distance rather than the shorter 800m event which even surprised the coach. 
The only target set being "completing the race".  

Well Done hAnA.
