Archery

Wielding faith and aiming for excellence, archery has always signified the spirit of self-discipline, the quality of perseverance, and the belief in transcendence. Archery is not just a competitive sport that seeks to hit the bullseye, but through participation in archery school activity pupils can improve their physical fitness, develop self-control, strengthen their psychological qualities, enhance teamwork, and increase their self-confidence. The simplicity and substance of archery have been consistently passed down, becoming an eternal symbol of the perfect combination of the physical and the spiritual.
