SPORTS DAY AT AITAPE

 SPORTS DAY AT AITAPE

The Tennis/netball/volley Ball court had not been used since the beginning of Lent. So on Sunday after our Day of Reflection which concluded at 3.00pm it was arranged that we should play sport as a form of recreation. However since the court had not been used for a long time it had to mowed and the edges cut with cane knives before we could begin to play.

There is no catcher for the mower, so there was also raking to be done. After this two teams were formed and the game commenced. Most of te participants were                   novices and postulants with a couple of  professed Sisters. I was wise enough to suggest that I do the scoring for the game.                                                                    

Everyone really enjoyed the 3 games of volley ball, there was  lots of laughing and some very skillful moves. It was very hot so having spent about 40 mins in the sun getting the court ready for the game we decided to finish so that we could have showers and be presentable for Evening Prayer in the Chapel. The Sisters have very strong voices and the Prayer and Mass are a delight to attend.
