“The more difficult the victory, the greater the happiness in winning.”
National Sports Day is celebrated on the 29th of August every year. It marks the birth anniversary of Hockey Legend Major Dhyan Chand, who is regarded as the greatest Hockey player of all time.
To mark the significance of National Sports Day, Carmel Convent High School organized a special assembly in the school quadrangle where all the children from classes I- X gathered to inculcate the feeling of true sportsmanship and to enhance their physical and social skills. Along with the special assembly, class X Cabinet members gave information about various games viz: Football, Volleyball, Cricket, Basketball & Throw ball, and also a few questions were asked to the children based on their topics.
Lastly, our dearest Principal Sr. Sushmita addressed the gathering to focus on the benefits of different sports and how the aspiring youth’s energy can be utilized in re-constructing a nation and its glory on the international front. She further highlighted that sports can develop multiple qualities like a sense of togetherness, leadership skills, stamina, planning, patriotism, and teamwork.
Children prepared charts and displayed it in the whole school to enhance the importance of Sports Day.
