The Agege Township Stadium came alive with colour, cheers, and competition over the week as BOLS International Schools held its Inter-house Sports Competition.
Under the distinguished chairmanship of Chief Sunbo Onitiri, four houses—Blue, Green, Purple, and Yellow—vied passionately for supremacy in an electrifying atmosphere.
The day’s events kicked off at 11:22 AM with the symbolic lighting of the Unity Torch by the school’s Managing Director, Mr. Adegbola Onitiri.

This was followed by a vibrant and well-coordinated march past by all four houses, each displaying a unique fusion of culture, pageantry, and pride.
Students then took to the track for a variety of races and fun games, including the 50m, 100m, 200m, and 400m sprints, as well as the 4x100m relay. Younger pupils also delighted the crowd with playful events such as “Filling the Bottle” and the “Slippers Race.”
These contests not only tested athletic ability but also reinforced values such as teamwork, discipline, and sportsmanship.
