Field
The school compound contains a large field beside the building. A section of it is paved with concrete, allowing for basketball. The rest of the field is grassy, muddy, allowing space for sports, including cricket, handball, football, volleyball and badminton to be played. The field is surrounded by foliage, mainly palm, mahogany, and mango trees.But the fields are very crowdy during the break time and many students get injured while crossing the field.

Famous quotes containing the word field:
“Last night I watched my brothers play,
The gentle and the reckless one,
In a field two yards away.
For half a century they were gone
Beyond the other side of care
To be among the peaceful dead.”
—Edwin Muir (1887–1959)
“After all the field of battle possesses many advantages over the drawing-room. There at least is no room for pretension or excessive ceremony, no shaking of hands or rubbing of noses, which make one doubt your sincerity, but hearty as well as hard hand-play. It at least exhibits one of the faces of humanity, the former only a mask.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“What though the field be lost?
All is not lost; the unconquerable Will,
And study of revenge, immortal hate,
And courage never to submit or yield:
And what is else not to be overcome?”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
