World Peace Day at St.Peter’s

The Bible says, “Depart from evil and do good; Seek peace and pursue it.” (Psalms 34:14)

Peace is the state of tranquillity or quiet, and the freedom from civil disturbance. It is accomplished with love.

When should you maintain peace?

• In times of trouble
• During a fight

What we did
We all had lots and lots of fun thanks to our dear teachers! We hung all our doves up on the ceiling, and had a short assembly where we took a lot of photos and Joy ma’am gave a speech about that special day. We came back to school the next day and were delighted to see all our photos on the notice board! It was truly awesome.

Thank you all for your efforts because of which we had a wonderful Peaceful Day!!

-Neha Grace (Class 7)

Several successful people are all-rounders who have excelled in academics and sports. St.Peter’s places adequate importance on sports and this can be seen through several sports activities conducted throughout the year. On July 16th, the Physical Education department along with the sports secretaries conducted the Athletic Meet. Students were encouraged to participate in this tournament that includes events like running, shotput, long jump, discus throw and relay races.

The Meet was kick-started by all students taking an oath, which was delivered by the sports Secretary. This ensures everyone is aware of fair play and sportsmanship.
Each House ( Summer, Spring, Autumn and Winter) were allotted a place to be seated, from where students could cheer on their respective house athletes. Every house had athletes for all events, with boys and girls competing separately.
All athletes were motivated by their cheering houses and put their best foot forward in every event. The air was filled with excitement and energy as the competitions were tough and close.

After a half hour break for refreshments, winners were announced. Each winner earned points for their houses, which would eventually be tallied at the end of the year to announce the Best House.

Results of the Athletic Meet:
1st place – Spring House; 2nd place – Autumn House; 3rd place – Summer House and 4th place – Winter House

Everybody left the field with a sense of euphoria and energy that we believe can only be experienced through sports!

The school management and the CBSE teachers conduct programs  every saturday to bring out the talents of the students . The privileged students are the 1st to 8th grade CBSE students . Every student is given the opportunity to take part in these programmes.

The first programme conducted was the poem recitation.Here,students took 4 days  to prepare their poem and recite them.There were 3 options given to them they could either recite their poem in English , Tamil or Hindi.

Students were segregated into 3 categories.The students were notified about the rules and regulation before the programme started.There were three judges.The students were then judged.
