The atmosphere was electric as students, teachers, parents, and invited guests gathered to witness the culmination of weeks of spirited competition among the school houses. The inter-house sports competition featured a wide range of activities designed to test not only physical strength and agility but also coordination, strategy, and teamwork.
Students actively participated in various sporting events including table tennis, badminton, basketball, volleyball, and football, as well as track events such as the 100m and 200m races.

In addition, three exceptional teachers were recognized for their commitment, impact, and contributions to the growth and success of the students and the school community.
The event not only marked the end of the inter-house sports season but also reinforced the importance of a well-rounded education—where academics, sports, and character development go hand in hand.
