Daring to leap!

Recently students at BSB Sanlitun started their Indoor Athletics Unit, which includes long jump, high jump and javelin throw.

Last week we guided the students to learn the skill of long jump. As a classic traditional event of the Olympic Games, the long jump is deeply loved by people all over the world.

Inspiring students' interest in sports and helping students to challenge themselves and break through boundaries has always been the guiding philosophy of our PE team. We encourage our students to Be Ambitious and improve their physical fitness through continuous effort. The students learned the fundamental technique of long jump, and its potential areas of difficulty, and dedicated themselves to repeated practice. We were pleased to see students lose their fear of jumping and landing and challenge themselves to get better.

It was extremely gratifying to see that all students, no matter their year group, competed with their classmates in attempt after attempt, hoping to get better results. We were especially proud of those students who chose to Be Resilient and overcame their initial uncertainty. It is great to see the students create an active and hard-working atmosphere in their class and encourage each other to succeed.

We hope that in the rest of the athletics unit, and throughout the rest of the year, we can continue to provide students with many more opportunities to challenge themselves, dare to compete and Be Ambitious. We are very excited to see our students’ performance in the upcoming House Indoor Athletics Competition!
