Ashima Sharma, Keekli Reporter, 27th September, 2013, Shimla
Bad weather did not hinder the enthusiasm of the students of Hainault Public School, as they continued with the left over events from the previous day. The students were very excited to represent their houses — Subhash, Nehru, Tagore and Indira. Every participant tried his best to win as many trophies as possible for his class.
The first event that took place was Long Jump for different divisions as the event could not be finished on 26th September. This was then followed by the Shot-put Throw. For the junior section a Basketball throw was organised. The students cheered aloud for their House mate, encouraging them at every step, vying for a medal.
All the students, staff and even the non-teaching staff was actively involved as they were assigned different duties. The thrill, excitement and the pleasure of winning were all worth seeing as the children took to the field. It was definitely a tiring day for the students but, they enjoyed themselves tremendously.
Principal, Ritu Pal has a strong belief that taking part in sporting activities can be very rewarding. This opportunity should be used to engage young people in fun and exciting activities, to help them develop their values and teach them sportsmanship and leadership qualities.
