November - December
November:
- Football
We started the season with a match against CIS, which was hard becasue we tried out different formations and the team was pretty unorganized. We ended up drawing against them, 2:2 but techniqually won on penalties in the end. We played a couple of matches after the initial training setions including another game against CIS, Gateway, Royal Institute and Elizabeth Moir school. We beat royal Institute 4:1, Gateway 3:1, lost 3:2 to Elizabeth Moir and beat CIS on penalities after a 1:1 score during the game.
Here are some pictures from training and a few of the games:
Our hard training on Tuesdays, Wednesdays mornings at 6, Friday afternoons and Saturday mornings has made us into a colaberative team with many strong aspects. We have worked collaboratively with others, shown perseverance and commitment in their activities and I have develop a new skills as a defender on the team.
SAISA this year was a quite successful experience as well. We worked hard as a team to get as far as we could in the group stages. We had to make some shifts in the team because one of the main defenders made some stupid choices and therefore was not able to travel. I then became the central defender and the sweeper, which was a new experience, and made my playing style change quite a bit to adapt.
We did not do so well in the first two games, lossing to LAS 3-0 and Bombay with 3-2. When we then challenged Karachi in the third group stage match, we beat them 3-1 which was a releif because we then moved on to the quarter finals.
We met Chennai in the quarter finals, which also was a success where we won. The only problem was that we were placed against LAS again in the Semi finals, and we knew before we even started that we were not going to make it. LAS had not conseeded one goal in the whole tournament and we didnt stand a chance in the second half. We were clearly the best team against them though, allowing only 2 goals in the Semi finals, which was 1 less goal then any of the other teams, proving that we were their toughest rivals.
After loosing to LAS 2-0 we moved on to play for the 3rd or the 4th position. At this point, our team had so many injuries and we were all so tired that we eventually went into penalties when the score was 3-3, and then lost on penalties. :(
But we did work hard throughout the tournament and it was all worth it in the end, to manage so far with the team that we had. Well done boys!!! Here are some pictures from SAISA:

For creativity this term I have learnt a new skill. When we were doing the Battle of the Bands for our community and service concert, I chose to be the person responisble for the lights. This seemed interesting to me and I wanted to do the best job that I could do to make the performances the best that they could be.
To make sure I knew what I was doing, I collaberated with Constance to practice the different lighting effects beforehand and memorized the different buttons for master turnoff and strobelight effects. These were all needed as some of the bands in the performances wanted the lights to flash as they were playing, or that their act started with the whole stage being dark.
I thought I did a very good job when we actually did the whole Battle of the Bands concert, and the others must have thought so too, because they asked me to do the OSC's got Talent show two weeks after as well. This made me feel proud of my accomplishments ;) Here are some pictures from the talent show:

Our main project for this term was the Battle of the Bands concert. We started many months ago to try and spread as much awareness about Cleft lip and palete to the public and to raise money for these children.

On the 26th of November we finally got all the people that enjoy rock and roll together in Colombo. We had the Battle of the Bands concert at the OSC auditorium, with special equipment to assist the bands with quality and invited two local profesional bands to play after the competition between the other bands was completed. This even was a huge success, bring in about 300 people from all over Colombo and raise a staggering 314 thousand rupees for the Kids with Cleft Lip and Palete disease.
