Reflecting on my own experiences, I recall competitions during my school years. The anticipation, the preparation, and the sheer thrill of participating were unparalleled. Looking back it was not just about winning; it was about the journey, the camaraderie, and the lessons learned along the way. This personal anecdote underscores the essence of the JGM Games – a blend of fun, education, and personal growth.
The JGM Games aim to foster and enhance the qualities that define outstanding students. We meticulously craft every aspect of the competition to nurture these attributes. Participation is contingent upon meeting specific criteria, ensuring that only the most dedicated and capable students compete.
Attributes
Timeliness
Students must demonstrate their punctuality by arriving at school on time for two months preceding the competition. This discipline instills a sense of responsibility and time management, crucial skills for academic and professional success.
Sports
Athletics play a significant role in the JGM Games. Students must exhibit their passion for sports, emphasizing the importance of physical fitness and outdoor activities. The games are dynamic and require participants to showcase their athletic prowess. The best performers advance to the next round, highlighting the competitive spirit and the value of perseverance.
Academics
Academics are equally critical. Students undergo a rigorous test, and only those with the highest scores proceed in the competition. This underscores the importance of academic excellence and intellectual capability.
Reading
A month before the games, students engage in a "cuenta cuentos," a storytelling activity that serves multiple purposes. This exercise, where they orally share stories, is designed to entertain, impart lessons, and foster a love for reading. It cultivates creativity, enhances public speaking skills, and nurtures empathy as students bring characters and narratives to life through expressive voice and gestures.
Luck:
​The last game introduces an element of unpredictability, demonstrating how luck can influence outcomes. The nature of this game remains unknown to the students until the moment of competition, emphasizing that luck, alongside skill and preparation, plays a role in life's journey.
What It Offers:
The JGM Games are more than just a competition; they are a comprehensive experience that molds students into well-rounded individuals. By integrating timeliness, storytelling, athletics, academics, and the element of luck, the games prepare students for the multifaceted challenges of life. The field trip to Lima serves as a fitting reward, offering both enjoyment and education, and leaving participants with memories that will last a lifetime.
