Finally, the day is here. We've been scheduling the sports meet for quite some meet. It had to be postponed due to unexpected rains and finally, it was conducted on Sep 12 and 13 soon after the Onam holidays. We had shotput, javelin throw, 50m, 100 m etc. The involvement and participation in the second years were a little low compared to the first years. Events like shot put, javelin throw, 50 m race etc had good participation. The selection of students for the finals of each event was done on the first day. The finals followed by prize distribution were done on the second day. I was supposed to run the100m race but had to pull out due to previous complications in my leg injury. But I got to participate in the march past which was totally unexpected. By the end of the day, we were dead tired from the scorching sun, but it was all worth it.
And we are back at MTTC after a month of the internship. We had a small discussion on our experiences at each school. Two or more representatives from each school came forward and shared their views on the experience. While some had some bitter experiences, everyone liked the overall teaching experience. We had our Onam celebrations on 12th September. This was the perfect way to end the college before the college closed for the Onam holidays. The day was packed with events. There was a Mega Thiruvathira which included students and teachers. Then we had cultural events at the auditorium followed by the most anticipated 'Onam Sadhya'. The items for the sadhya were prepared by the different optional classes. Later, after lunch, we had the Onam games which included musical chairs and tug of war (my team won 😃). I think our return to college couldn't have been grander.
