The Sports Day is the most ceremonial event in the school year. It is not only a gathering of track and field events, team competitions, and fun activities, but also a unifying ceremony for all students and staff. Shoufeng Junior High School holds its Sports Day biennially, combining it with the school anniversary and hosting a “Joint Sports Day with Surrounding Villages,” inviting local community members to participate, giving the event a unique community flavor.

Although this year’s Sports Day was affected by a cold front from mainland China, with weather alternating between sunny and rainy, it did not diminish the students’ dedication and enthusiasm. Every cheer on the field reflected their long-awaited energy. Additionally, with the government restoring the Constitution Day holiday, the Sports Day was held on December 25, which attracted a large number of parents, setting a new record for parental attendance.
