Here's a video clip from Sports Day. A day that was instituted by Ataturk. Students spent the day rotating to various sporting acitivities wearing their house team colors. The day culminated in relay races against teams and high pitched cheering. The noise and energy in the gymnasium was crazy. Experienced teachers came prepared with ear plugs. It was a blast! It was a cross between Camp Chateaugay, Track and Field Day, and a Justin Beiber concert. My ears were ringing for hours afterwards. :-) The girls were both on the same team and ran a relay race together.
