National Sports Day is celebrated in India every year on 29th August to commemorate the birth anniversary of the legendary Indian hockey player Major Dhyan Chand.

The programme began with the lighting of the diya by our Principal Mrs. Vandana Kamble and AHM Mrs. Bharti Gadge.

Ms. Kshitija Pawar, our sports teacher, highlighted the importance of sports, physical fitness, discipline and teamwork in our lives.
Two videos were shown: one about the life of Major Dhyan Chand and the other about the importance of sports in our lives.

At Purushottam High School, National Sports Day was celebrated with great enthusiasm and spirit. The celebration aimed to encourage students to participate actively in sports and understand the importance of maintaining a healthy and balanced lifestyle.
