Physical Activity Grounds
Recreational spots include the "puncha", a badminton court, a volleyball court, a basketball court and a large college ground(possession of Bishop Moore College). The badminton court, the volleyball court and the basketball court were inaugurated on the same day in 2008 during the annual School Day. As the school academics end by 3 o'clock, the students can play until 4 o' clock as a part of the Sports and Activities period.
The "puncha", as it is traditionally called, is a small grassy ground near to the SSLC section. The annual athletic meet used to be held there but now it is used solely by the SSLC section during their sports periods or leisure times.
The badminton court is the main ground of the Pre-Primary section. The students are given rackets to play after their academic classes are over, the corks are bought by the students with their own money. Badminton tournaments are conducted within the school.
The volleyball court faces the cycle stand.
The basketball is a large ground, adjacent to the Pre-Primary section. Basketball tournaments are held.
The college ground is under the control of the Bishop Moore College. However, it is also used by the school for the annual sports meet. During the physical education period, the students are given access to play their games.

Famous quotes containing the words physical, activity and/or grounds:
“... life is moral responsibility. Life is several other things, we do not deny. It is beauty, it is joy, it is tragedy, it is comedy, it is psychical and physical pleasure, it is the interplay of a thousand rude or delicate motions and emotions, it is the grimmest and the merriest motley of phantasmagoria that could appeal to the gravest or the maddest brush ever put to palette; but it is steadily and sturdily and always moral responsibility.”
—Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911)
“Amour is the one human activity of any importance in which laughter and pleasure preponderate, if ever so slightly, over misery and pain.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“Our intellect is not the most subtle, the most powerful, the most appropriate, instrument for revealing the truth. It is life that, little by little, example by example, permits us to see that what is most important to our heart, or to our mind, is learned not by reasoning but through other agencies. Then it is that the intellect, observing their superiority, abdicates its control to them upon reasoned grounds and agrees to become their collaborator and lackey.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
