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:
“It seems to me that we have to draw the line in sibling rivalry whenever rivalry goes out of bounds into destructive behavior of a physical or verbal kind. The principle needs to be this: Whatever the reasons for your feelings you will have to find civilized solutions.”
—Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
“The superstition respecting power and office is going to the ground. The stream of human affairs flows its own way, and is very little affected by the activity of legislators. What great masses of men wish done, will be done; and they do not wish it for a freak, but because it is their state and natural end.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“And in a disused shed in Co. Wexford,
Deep in the grounds of a burnt-out hotel,
Among the bathtubs and the washbasins
A thousand mushrooms crowd to a keyhole.”
—Derek Mahon (b. 1941)
