Sports Day 2015 at Doranda St. Xaviers

St. Xavier's School, Doranda today had its 41st Annual Sports Meet from 10.00 am to 3.00 p.m.

Apart from the usual athletic and sporting events, children of all classes showcased fantastic cultural presentations, dances and Nukkad Naataks on various themes.

Today's burning issues like communal harmony, tolerance, Swaccha Bharat Abhiyaan, Kashmir : Heaven on Earth, etc. were very aptly and powerfully highlighted and presented.

The Houses of the School presented an impressive March Past at the Inaugural and Closing Ceremonies.

Doranda Old Xaverians (DOX) and their spouses presented a Friendly Mixed Doubles Tug of War, in which the team led by JAAI Vice President Dr. Devendra Singh defeated the team led by JAAI Central Zone President Er. Shivendra Mohan Sharma. "Women's Power" added flavour and colour to the event. (For once, men  could share the victory of the ever-victorious fairer sex !).

The Chief Guest at the Inaugural Ceremony was the Additional Director General of Police Jharkhand : Mr. Anurag Gupta, who himself is a Jesuit Student and hails from St. Joseph's North Point, Darjeeling.

The Chief Guest of the Closing Ceremony was Mr. Hemant Soren, the immediately former Chief Minister of Jharkhand. Incidentally, his son is also a current student of this School.

Some pictures are appended for your delight.

Best regards.

Dr. Devendra Singh. 
Vice President - JAAI.
