Good Morning and a warm welcome to all the dear parents gathered here.
I
would like to welcome you to Global Indian International’s Annual Sports day.
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.
Anchor 2:
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.

begin the Annual Sports Day with lots of enthusiasm, passion, and vigor.
