29th August is a day for which all the sports lovers wait as this day is celebrated as the national sports day in our country. The wizard of Hockey Major Dhyanchand was born on 29th August in the year 1905 in Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh. Most of the institutions and sports bodies across the country celebrate this day by conducting different sporting events.

Here at Podar World School Vadodara, we celebrated this day in a very different way. We showcased the posters and banners related to the event around the school so as to have the awareness in the students regarding the importance of this day.

The day was started with a speech in the assembly on importance of National Sports Day by Anuj Chawda of standard VII and a speech on Health and Nutrition by School Sports Captain Saumya Singh of standard VIII.

Different activities were organized for the students of different classes. Standard 1st & 2nd were given the worksheet of Sports Picture Activity and students of 3rd and 4th standard completed the Health and Nutrition related worksheet. Whereas students of 5th and 6th went through the sports quiz.

The day was totally filled with the ambience of sports everywhere. We hope that this would play a pivotal role in overall development and growth of the sports and the students in sports.
