Read the passage carefully. Then choose the correct answer.
 
The banners and tents were all up. Everything was set for our annual Sports Day. That afternoon, all the pupils came to school to cheer on their classmates and friends. The tent for visitors was also filling up with parents and guests from our neighboring schools.

The event kicked off with the singing of the national anthem and our school song. After a few words of encouragement from our principal and guest of honor, the Sports Day started. First event was the class games across levels. It was fun watching the lower primary pupils running and passing balls and bean bags to each other. Each game had four groups of participants and no one went home empty-handed.

Eventually, the more anticipated races started. Inter-class races fro the upper primary classes were always hotly contested. Each pupil who took part wanted to bring glory to his class and help it to win the champion class award. This year, the award went to Primary Five C. A loud roar of cheers and a long applause came from the spectators when the Sports Day ended. We all looked forward to the same event next year.
