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:
“In the beginning, I wanted to enter what was essentially a man’s field. I wanted to prove I could do it. Then I found that when I did as well as the men in the field I got more credit for my work because I am a woman, which seems unfair.”
—Eugenie Clark (b. 1922)
“The woman ... turned her melancholy tone into a scolding one. She was not very young, and the wrinkles in her face were filled with drops of water which had fallen from her eyes, which, with the yellowness of her complexion, made a figure not unlike a field in the decline of the year, when the harvest is gathered in and a smart shower of rain has filled the furrows with water. Her voice was so shrill that they all jumped into the coach as fast as they could and drove from the door.”
—Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
“There is a call to life a little sterner,
And braver for the earner, learner, yearner.
Less criticism of the field and court
And more preoccupation with the sport.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
