Cross Country

On Saturday the 24th February the under 16 girls ran cross country that was held here at Amano. There were five schools who participated; Simba, Lechwe,Ndola trust,Lifesong and Amano. We ran 5km. There were 7 in my team, we came out in first place and got gold medals and the trophy. I really thank the team for their hard work and perseverance and everyone who supported us. And above all GOD who kept us safe and for a good weather. Mr Grove, thank you for organising it all.
Thank you so much.

Off to a flying start!

There were some U11's 'fun running' for Amano

Amano hosted the ISAZ Cross-country competition on Saturday 24th February, and 7 of the older boys ran in the open category.
We competed against 4 schools which were: Lifesong [non-ISAZ guests], Ndola Trust, Lechwe and Simba.
Our team did really well on that day as they all ran hard and did their best. So out of everyone that was competing we came out 2nd out of the 5 schools, with Lifesong taking 1st by a long way with 21 points, but from the ISAZ schools, Amano came out 1st with 38 points, followed by Simba with 85 points and finally Lechwe with 135 points. The girls also came out 1st with 51 points.
I would like to thank the team for putting in a lot of effort, some running with colds, which I am sure was not easy. I would also like to thank Mr Grove for organising the whole thing and ultimately I would like to thank God for the good day and that everything went well without anyone getting seriously injured.
Thank you very much.

It was hard work for some...
... but not for others!

Amano's U13's, U16's and U19's all came out first over all this year. The U13 boys had a tough day and of course everybody was undone by our guests Lifesong, but there was good depth in the teams and it was great to see so many involved with the new team structure. "Well done everyone". Our thanks also goes to our neighbour for allowing us access to her farm, "Thank you".
