Sports such as Ice Skating and Malkhamb are seeing growing interests from school children, with the 8th annual sports day at Airoli campus of EuroSchool witnessing enthralling performance by kids as early as those from Pre-Primary.

 

Under the expert guidance and training of professional coaches, EuroSchool students across Pre-Primary (KG), Primary (Grade 1-4) and Secondary grades (5-10) put up captivating performance of Ice Skating and Malkhamb. An artificial surface akin to ice skating was placed right at the centre of the school playground for students to display their latest feats in the new sport.

The two events were in addition to the fascinating display of sporting expertise in traditional games such as football, athletics, basketball, handball, Taekwondo, tennis, cricket and chess amongst others.

 

As a part of the measures taken to promote sports, the Airoli campus has provisioned for a sprawling playground, two turfed multi-sports courts, a skating rink and professional set up for advanced gymnastics, Malkhamb, aerial gymnastics and Yoga.
