ANNUAL SPORTS MEET SPECIAL
WEATHER
Weather is taking a new turn with constant snowfall in lower Himalayas. February that started on a warm note is clouded with stratus clouds signalling more snow in the mountains. Though days are warmer than January, mornings and evenings remain chilly with cold winds. These are indications of another cold wave before winter bids adieu. School recorded maximum temperature at 26°C and minimum temperature at 11°C. Humidity was at 24%. Wind blew at 8 km/hr.
SKILL
दब गया है मेरा बचपन
आज शिक्षा के बोझ से,
दब गया है मेरा बचपन।
गिनती की गणना में,
वर्णो की झंकार में,
अल्फाबेट को रटने में,
दब गया है मेरा बचपन।
कभी परीक्षा का टाइम टेबल।
रोजाना ट्यूशन का खेल।
कभी पडोसी बच्चे से आगे जाने की होड़,
कभी माँ बाप की ख्वाइशों की खातिर,
दब गया है मेरा बचपन।
किताबी पन्नो के भार तले,
झुक गयी है मेरी कमर।
होमवर्क के भरी दबाव में,
खो गयी है मेरी भावनाएँ।
मेरी भी इच्छा है बचपन जीने की
बिना चश्मों के मस्ती करने की।
दोस्तों के साथ गलियो में दौड़ने की,
लेकिन सभी की उम्मीदों के तले,
दब गया है मेरा बचपन।
मुझे भी तो खेल खेलने दो,
बगीचों से दो आम तोड़ने तो दो।
मेरा बचपन तो जी लेने दो,
बन जाऊगा जो आपको बनाना है।
आपके बड़े सपनों के बीच,
दब गया है मेरा बचपन।
-Khushi Rao/X/GH
SPORTSMAN”S SPIRIT
Sportsman’s spirit is taking part in sports and playing the game by the rules. It is also playing the game with your heart and soul, with joy and liveliness. Sportsman ship is an aspiration that a sport or activity will be enjoyed for its own sake, with fairness, respect and a sense of fellowship with one’s competitors.
A true sports person has to be a good winner and a good loser. It means that when you lose, you take it in your stride and try to analyze your mistakes and if you win then you will not be over-confident and gloat over your opponents. A good sports person is ready to accept any situation that comes up in the course of the game. He is always there for the team. A sports person has to accept any role that his skipper assigns for him. Winning and losing is a part of the game and the match always goes to the player who is better prepared for it on that day.
Shaking hands with your opponents is considered the right spirit of a good sportsman. Enjoy the game and maintain the team spirit in the game.
