Its a nostalgic enviornment for everyone present at My Apple School Sanskar Foundation as the school celebrate National Sports Day 2022 with traditional games which are slowly vanishing in this mobile virtual world. The aim is to make students understand the meaning of physical and mental development and get out from this internet world.
On Monday MASSF celebrated National Sports Day along with students with great zest and enthusiasm. India celebrates National Sports Day on August 29, the birth anniversary of hockey hero Major Dhyan Chand. The school too celebrate this day by playing traditional sports at their lush green lawn.
The teachers and students from Grade 1 to 10 came with great ardour, pride and honour to celebrated the day and played all the traditional games of India like Kho -Kho, Kabaddi, Gilli Danda, Sattodiyu, Langdi, Cycle Tyre Rolling and others under guidance of the sports teacher.
"Playing games has always been an exciting part of growing up for us all. We recollect with happiness our childhood games and gadget free days. Sports is a great way to make friends and be healthy as well. There are many benefits of playing such traditional games which we are slowly forgetting in this mobile virtual world. Indian traditional games don't require expensive equipment to play, nor does it require any uniform or specific shoes and accessories, all that is required is people to play with and space to play in," said Shahnawaz Malik, Sports teacher of MASSF.
"It is equally important to teach our kids about our culture and tradition as it is to teach them new age concepts. It is vital that they know their roots and have a sense of pride about it. By playing Indian traditional games, children can connect with their heritage through sports and this has a deep lifelong positive impact on them," said Varsha Punjabi, teacher of the school.
