Sports day in school provides an excellent opportunity to get the children to practice and refine their athletic skills both individually and co-operatively. Sports day needs to be carefully managed so that every child gets the opportunity to participate fully in a range of sports and games to celebrate their achievements by providing a challenging yet supportive environment. It is indeed a great way to enhance students’ fitness while keeping them physically and mentally healthy.
In the Inter House Sports Tournament, students of Beaconhouse School System (Jauhar Hilltop Campus) enthusiastically participated in various kinds of sports and games. This Tournament took place in full Swing and was an inclusive day of fun for the whole school.
We divided the day into two parts with the children did some interesting warm up exercises to gear up their energy, flexibility and strength, followed by some more fun sports, games, march past, track races and competitions. Children participated into different teams such as Red (Tigers), Green (Leopards), Yellow (Jaguars) and Blue ( Panthers).
All our Early Years and Primary students together performed simple acts like Aerobics and Taekwondo and showed some perfect and energetic moves while the Primary students also performed difficult acts like Gymnastics. Moreover, children of Jauhar Hilltop Campus on the basis of the division of houses took part in the following races and competitions.
i) Hurdle race
ii) Spoon race
iii) Cone running race
iv) Tug of war competition
The most number of wins have been procured by the Yellow House(Jaguars). The children were so supportive of each other and their peers in the other teams; it was really lovely to hear them all cheer their friends.
We had lots of fun!
