Friday 27th May, 2011:
The 2008 Beijing Olympics was
recreated in its own small way on
the eve of the 27th and
the morning of the 28th
of this month. Amidst the sound of
synchronized drum beats and
coordinated drills, the college
celebrated the eve of the Annual
Sports Day with much fanfare and
aplomb. The rain did not deter the
participants and the general public
from joining in, in this one time
unique event. For the first time in
the history of the college, the
summer skies were lit with the
finest display of fireworks.
The Greek saying to the Annual
College Sports Meet “Mena Sana in
Corpore sano”, meaning ‘sound mind
in a sound body’ was what informed
this two day special event. Sporting
events have always been a strong
part of our student teachers life
style, valued for its promotion of
good health, friendship and the will
to succeed. As observed, the college
played its part in its own small way
… in sharing values to ensure good
health and general well being.
According
to the organizers of the meet, the
annual sports day was organized with
the intent of ensuring that the
student teachers enjoy equality of
opportunity and access to
appropriate forms of sport while
experiencing positive social
experiences.
