The idiom “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” holds true even for the young learners. Sports whether team based or individual, are great for children as they provide not just physical activity, but also helps to strengthen their self esteem, confidence, and social skills and motivate them to excel in life by building their sportsmanship spirit.
In recognition of the importance of sports in a child’s life, BIS celebrated its Annual Sports Festival with great pomp and fanfare. Our Sports Festival helped children to explore their hidden sports interests as they enjoyed a healthy competition with each other.
It was a thematic event depicting different facets of the UAE Culture and Heritage. During the fun-filled week, children participated in various races, drills and exercises. The students entertained the audience with spectacular drills where they performed various steps guaranteed to burn some energy, increase physical fitness, and improve gross motor skills. Children participated in large numbers in engaging, stimulating and innovative races such as UAE Burj Khalifa Race, UAE Expo 2020 Race, UAE Seven Emirates Race, Boat Racing and the famous Football Race, which got our audience cheering and applauding for the young ones.
The spectacular event came to an end with the Prize Distribution Ceremony as all our little ones were ‘WINNERS ALL THE WAY’. The parents were invited to participate in special activities such as tug of war and musical chairs as they showed their athletic and sportsman spirit. The parents left with a smile on their faces and our tiny tots held tight onto their gifts. All in all the entire school was buzzing with vibrancy and enthusiasm as our young sporty stars were proud of their achievements.
