Sports Day-Pre Primary
The 5th Annual Sports Day at Shiv Nadar school was nothing short of a grand affair. Our pre-primary stars shined through the event as they displayed various skills they had learnt through the academic year. Apart from this they also performed a drill which was well coordinated and energetic. Keeping in mind the age group of our pre-primary children, there were no races planned. The motive was not to show who was the fastest but to show that all of them can perform the skills independently and at their own pace. Some of the skills around which the activities were planned include full body balance, major muscle coordination, awareness of both sides of the body, hand –eye coordination, hand and leg coordination and palmer grip!
