NERUL, NOVEMBER 29, 2011: The Sixth Annual Sports Meet of Don Bosco Senior Secondary School along with the Pre-Primary Section, Nerul was held on November 26, 2011. The Chief Guest for the day was Rev.Fr. Jude D'Mello, the Rector of Don Bosco School, Matunga, and of Don Bosco Senior Secondary School, Nerul. Mrs. Sylvia Countinho was the Chief Guest for the Pre- Primary section.
The event began with a fabulous march past by students of Classes VI - X, led by our own school band – another feather in the cap for Don Bosco Senior Secondary School Nerul.
There were different competitive events for the kids of the pre-primary section. Each and every child actively participated in the drill display. The theme of the drills was 'Save Environment'. The youngest class Playgroup emphasized on 'Save Animals'. The Pre-Preparatory Class gave the message to 'Save Water', and the Preparatory class concentrated on 'Save Trees'.
The Students from Classes I – V also presented a drill display which gave every child an opportunity to be on the grounds, matching exercises to the beat of the drum or music. Each one learnt not only the different exercises in sequence but more importantly the beauty of performing in unison, and the strength of team work. Each drill had a message to give.
Class I – Save the Earth
Class II - Deforestation
Class III – Live and Let Live
Class IV – Anti Corruption
Class V - Pyramids
There was also a Taekwondo Display.
Following the drills were the track events which kept the spectators edged to their seats with the athletes displaying split second close finishes.
A special thanks to all the teachers, parents and students who put in their cent percent to make this event a great success.
