 To：All Staff

    A week ago，“Sports for Life”programme was sent to the parents，requiring them to select a sport they wanted their child to play.Since then，our staff have received lots of calls from parents asking for more information about it.Here is a memo(备忘录)for your reference when you answer the phones.

Sports 1：Basketball

    We expect that this will be the most popular of the four sports.Therefore，students should be advised to sign up as soon as possible.Students will take a private bus to and from Kwun Tong Sports Park.To cover the cost of hiring a bus，each student will have to pay $10 each time.There will be four basketball courts available for our use with one teacher watching over each game.

Sports 2：Gym

    We will be using St.Peter's Memorial Park.There are two reasons for choosing this park.First，it is not very busy and crowded before 6：00 pm.Second，it has lots of trees with plenty of shade.Students must bring along two bottles of water to prevent thirst.Three activities，skipping，jogging，outdoor aerobics(有氧运动)，all of which are free of charge，will be arranged.And there will be a teacher on duty for each of the activities.

Sports 3：Hiking

Hiking(远足)will take place at Kowloon Peak.The activity will start at 2：30 pm and finish 90 minutes later.Three teachers will accompany the students，and a hiking instructor will accompany each group of 15 hikers.Each instructor will cost $75/hr.Students are advised to bring plenty of water and sunscreen.

Sports 4：Swimming

     The Kowloon City Aquatic Centre is a 10­minute walk from our school.Four teachers will go to the pool and conduct the goings­on from the poolside.We will only be able to reserve the pool for one hour(i.e.2：45 pm to 3：45 pm)．Only students skilful at swimming can take up this activity.The pool will have two lifeguards present.Girls must wear a swimming suit.The cost is $10 per visit.
