Sports
A healthy mind resides in a healthy body. Games and sports education are not only significant for triumph in the student life but it is a key to achievement in every stride of life. The School believes in "Right to play & play for all". The school sports structure is developed to cater to various needs of the child. If sports are inculcated from a very young age, it helps build character and discipline. It gives students the confidence to trust their own individuality.
In this, natural curiosity and interaction with the environment stimulate the growth of motor activity which helps students to make a strong foundation for the sports. The body movement and coordination of the child is tapped through various locomotor, non-locomotor and manipulative activities. For the little icons, skill based sports like skating and gymnastic are offered.
The School provides opportunities to students to have the benefit of maximum sports with enjoyment. Education on fundamentals of every sports activity is imparted wherein the students get an experience of various sports like football, cricket, skating, swimming, athletics, etc. This varied experience enables students to identify a sport of their choice and excel in the same.
At this stage, sports programme encourages the students to excel in one sport, so that they are able to chip in and execute well in Intramural and Extramural competitions. Sports offered for the specialization include basketball, cricket and football.
We, at Mount, believe that as long as the icons are involved in sports activities, all their senses, the locomotor system and intellectual capacities are engaged. By playing sports, child becomes stronger, physically as well as mentally. Above all, they learn to overcome obstacles and challenges in real life situations.
