Ultimate, the new game introduced this year has been extremely popular. In the inter-class competitions held between MYP classes, Grade 8 (MYP 3) demonstrated great zeal and very good skills in this new sport.
Students of KG3 to Grade 6 participated in the Sports Day that was held in March. Different activities adapted to the physical capacities of each age-group were offered. Apart from that, both the girls’ and boys’ Football Team participated in an inter-school Under-14 Football Tournament and made it till the semi-finals.
This academic year, we have revamped the bathrooms to include showers and dressing rooms for boys and girls (separate). Athletism and gymnastics will continue to be included as part of the students’ regular training. In addition to the below mentioned activities, football, cricket, basket, karate and kung fu sessions will be offered after school as an optional sport from Grade 6 to 12.
