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:
“Wynken and Blynken are two little eyes,
And Nod is a little head,
And the wooden shoe that sailed the skies
Is a wee one’s trundle-bed.”
—Eugene Field (1850–1895)
“Hardly a book of human worth, be it heaven’s own secret, is honestly placed before the reader; it is either shunned, given a Periclean funeral oration in a hundred and fifty words, or interred in the potter’s field of the newspapers’ back pages.”
—Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)
“I don’t like comparisons with football. Baseball is an entirely different game. You can watch a tight, well-played football game, but it isn’t exciting if half the stadium is empty. The violence on the field must bounce off a lot of people. But you can go to a ball park on a quiet Tuesday afternoon with only a few thousand people in the place and thoroughly enjoy a one-sided game. Baseball has an aesthetic, intellectual appeal found in no other team sport.”
—Bowie Kuhn (b. 1926)
