The concept of a day of sports for parents came into inception with the parents of Nursery and Junior KG. A foggy morning with a hint of chill in the air made an apt start to the day, as the entire Sports department was all set for the inauguration of the event. Parents trickled-in in groups to enjoy the event.
As the school flag, hoisted by KG coordinator Mrs. Rakhi Tanawade, stood high on the flag-pole, Sports Incharge, Mr. Ramdas Lekawale announced the schedule for the entire event.
Parents’ enthusiasm knew no bounds as almost all of them participated and gave their best at the running competition. Running served as a good warm-up, after which they were all set for the team events of Volleyball and Throwball which they played for a full and final set of 25 points.
The prize-winning children for all the events (sports and curricular) held at Nursery and Junior KG were felicitated along with the winning parents at the day’s competitions. International Basket Ball players – Ms. Shruti Menon and Ms. Shruti Sherigar felicitated the children and parents, in the presence of our Director Mr. Anvit Phatak and Principal Mrs. Radhika Vaidya.
The event entirely hosted by the Sports Department received first hand feedback from the parents. To share a few: Mr. Sachin Chidrewar said, “The environment was very good and friendly for events and we enjoyed a lot”. Mrs. Namrata Bhosale doubled it saying, “This is a very good idea. We enjoyed a lot, just like our childhood!”
Most of them did state the fact that they were expecting a lot more participation.
We would also like to host a good number at the Sr. KG event. That will surely make it more remarkable!
