SPORTS DAY, SUNDAY MARCH 10th

 

It was a very special occasion with two distinguished Chief Guests presiding: the Minister for Defence the Hon. Pervaiz Khattack and His Excellency Mohammad Ch. Sarwar. A large crowd gathered on a beautifully prepared MCG; its splendid pavilion and new scoreboard featuring prominently. Events could be seen on the large screen. New additions of tent pegging, arena polo and rugby brought a fresh look to the day.  Boys from all three schools participated. Our best athletes and gymnasts performed most ably, as did old boys who relived memories in the sprinting and relay categories. The mothers fought out the musical chairs, while the day ended with an Old Boys’ March-Past. The Principal’s Afternoon tea Party provided welcome respite after a long day. The day is best remembered in some excellent photographs from Bhatti Sahib.
