ANNUAL SPORTS DAY DECEMBER 2022

1. INTRODUCTION:-
“The life is incomplete without sports; it’s the time to refresh our time so
play as much as you can.”
Good morning ladies and gentleman and a warm welcome to all you
present on this auspicious day. This fantastic day turnout from the
parents and the pleasant weather were the perfect boosts for the
students on their very first sports day after the lockdown..
A school sports day is a red-letter day on the calendar. It is a day when
students are freed from their classrooms to jump and run around, freed
from the fetters of learning. It is a day for mothers and fathers to cheer
on their sons and daughters.
It’s a day for red faces and perspiration where t-shirts and track pants
are the order of the day. School sports day is a day for lots of action and
smiling faces. It’s a day for victories and defeats, for successes and
failures.
Beyond the obvious health and activity benefits, sports can teach us
much about life. It teaches us about teamwork and team spirit. It teaches
us to work together to achieve a common goal. It’s also about trust and
responsibility and about dealing with success and failures
Sports Day is a day for celebrating the spirit of sportsmanship. So let’s
begin the Annual Sports Day with lots of enthusiasm, passion, and
vigour. So before we begin I call upon Maam Gurpreet to….introduce us
about the importance of this special day

2.PRAYER:
It is said that
For every atom there is a rainbow
For every tear, a smile
For every care, a promise
And a blessing in each trial
For every sign a sweet song and an answer for each prayer. “The
essence of meditation is a period of time, set aside to contemplate the
Lord, Listen to him and allow him to permeate our spirits” Let us all unite
our minds and souls in the presence of God to seek his   abundant
blessings.
I request ………………..come forward and start this auspicious day with
a beautiful prayer.
3. Prayer DANCE
To dance is to pray, to pray is to live and to live is to dance.
Dance like a prayer is an expression .The stage that is dance on is
transferred from solemn century to festive celebration of god. To dance
is to be out of yourself, larger more beautiful, more powerful. It is the
glory on earth. It has the power to heal mentally and physically .with
these sentiments in mind let us invoke the gods blessing on all of us
through a prayer dance.

So, get ready for a whirlwind of joy and excitement. Without further ado
let us prepare ourselves for a spectacular dance performance by girls of
3rd standard.
After dance
That was a great performance by the little twinkles and hope it was
phenomenal for you too.

4. FLORAL WELCOME
“When you welcome love with your whole heart, soul and body, love will
welcome you with all its sweetness”.
“Flowers don’t worry that how they are going to bloom,they just open up
and turn towards light and that makes them beautiful.”

5. Floral dance
Dance is the loftiest,
The most moving,
The most beautiful of the arts,
Because, it is not a mere translation or abstraction from life.
It’s life itself.

6. Aerobics
The movement of joy, the heart of life, the hidden language of the soul.
There is no greater feeling in the world than moving to a piece of music
and letting the rest of the world disappear. Dance is when you lose
yourself in the music and enjoy yourself.
It stimulates the body, mind and soul. You dance love, you dance joy,
you dance dream, you dance hope, and you dance happiness. So today
here we have the students of St. Joseph’s expressing themselves
through western dance .Being artists for whom the floor is the canvas
and they themselves are the brushes of this creativity spoken by their
heart.

7. Flag hoisting
Let’s feel one with our Mother Nation, that we be united with one spirit of
love that unites us as sons and daughters of one mother as we pay
homage to ____flag. “
Now we request our honourable chief guest …………………….to hoist
the flag

8.March past
“March past is all about synchronisation and team work. Marching in a
contingent demands alertness and an unspoken co-ordination.
The drumbeat rolls, the band strikes up and a high pitched voice issues
a command. The synchronised swing of arms and the sound of thudding
feet stir something within us. Besides being spectacular, there is
something inexplicably inspiring about a march past is the sense of
dignity and pride the students bring to it.
Our students demonstrate the heel march by digging their heel to the
ground, with toes pointed upwards and arms swinging rhythmically. A
comprehensive march past drill they spell out, lays emphasis on bearing,
marching, saluting and co-ordinating.
Now watching, the adorable marching of ………………………… house in
their blue colour which symbolizes peace, tranquility, stability and loyalty
.
Now ………………….. house is marching majestically in front you
dressed in red, symbolizes passion, sincerity, power and strength,.
Now at your sight, Gracious march of …………………….. House,
dressed in green symbolizes nature, renewal, generosity and fertility
Now watching, the adorable marching of ………………………… house in
their yellow colour which symbolizes cheerful, enthusiastic, vibrant,
exciting, and stimulating

9.Oath taking
“Oath will encourage fidelity to the extent that continues to believe that
one cannot escape ultimate accountability for a breach of faith”. Now,

We……………….
