41st Inter House Athletics Meet

On 1st February 2025, Sishya organized its 41st Annual Inter-house Athletics Meet. The athletic spirit took over the campus early, with athletes training diligently since school reopened. The event united students, teachers, and parents in a day of competitions, teamwork, and camaraderie. The four School Houses competed fiercely yet amicably for the Sports Shield and March Past Shield.

The meet began with Brig (Dr.) Karthik Ram Mohan, Commandant. Military Hospital, Chennai being welcomed by the Board of Trustees.

This was followed by the march past of the student body led by Umang Dugar, the Head Girl and Laxman PC, the Head Boy of the school and by the Games Captains Adhrit Suresh and Urvi Bengani.

The four houses, led by their House Captains and accompanied by the School Band, marched in next. The senior contingents led the way, followed by their junior counterparts. The school grounds were adorned in the vibrant house colors—yellow, blue, red, and green. The beautifully decorated house tents drew much appreciation.

Once the four houses congregated facing the center of the field, the school flag was hoisted, the games torch was lit, and the Chief Guest declared the meet open. This year’s drill was a mesmerizing spectacle, featuring a Feather Dance and high-energy Aerobics performed by the talented students of classes 6, 7, 8, 9, and 11. The synchronized movements, vibrant costumes, and sheer enthusiasm of the performers left the audience in awe.

Sutlej placed first followed by Godavari and Narmada. Godavari won the Marching Shield for senior boys and girls. The Junior Marching Cup was won by Sutlej. The cup for the Drill was won by Godavari and Cauvery took home the shield for the best disciplined house. Ezra Ivan Nargunam of Godavari and Heeya Mutha of Sutlej were declared the Best Athletes for the year.

As the meet came to an end amidst the strains of “Abide With Me”, and “Drummers Delight” which was anchored by the band leader Kavin Sandron G B. All participants were left with a sense of pride at their efforts over the past few weeks, and all those present already began to look forward to next year’s edition.
