Since the introduction of the modern day Olympics in 1896, sports has proven itself in fostering friendships between diverse communities. With 2010, having the Youth Olympics Games held in Singapore, it is only apt that a new and exciting sports program be launched for the entire NIE community. Furthermore, the Olympic spirit that has been the hot topic in the news recently can be infused in our student teachers as Singapore prepares for the hosting of the 2010 Youth Olympics.
