SPORTS FESTIVAL
Shahnaaz Abbas
MATUNGA-MUMBAI, NOVEMBER 14, 2012: Academics and co-curricular activities enjoy equal importance at Don Bosco, Matunga. The Sports Festival in the Primary Section gives each child the opportunity to participate as an individual and as a team.
Good team work helps us to move steadily and constantly towards our goal. It is not 
the winning or losing that matters but the spirit of participation.
With the theme as` Get Set Go…Win Hearts by Nurturing Presence` the Sports Festival began with the hoisting of the School Flag, a proud moment for the young Boscoites who watched their school colours rising higher.
To give the students a feel of international sporting events the Torch bearer lit the flame of the Don Bosco Primary Sports Festival games 2012-2013 to a loud round of applause. The Sportsman`s Prayer and Oath too, were solemnly taken.
The drill displays were fantastic synchronised performances – a treat to the eyes! The costumes were a palette of colours and the props used for the displays were innovative.
The Track events and the team games were well thought of keeping a learning objective in mind- eye hand co-ordination, concentration, team work etc.
It was a day of fun and games.
Thanks to the opportunity given by the school management, the guidance provided by the Head Teacher, the co-operation of the parents and the hard work put in by the teaching and non- teaching staff the Sports Festival was a grand success.
