INTERHOUSE HOCKEY FINALS

The much awaited Saturday finally arrived with the finals of the Girls Hockey Tournament scheduled to take place first. This match was played between Blue and Yellow House, both of whom were equally strong. None of these teams were able to score in the finals with the score remaining untouched. In the first half Blue House dominated and were constantly in Yellow's half, but due to some brilliant keeping by Pallavi Raghuvanshi they were not very successful in getting the ball into the goal. In the second half yellow half came back and showed that they were not a weaker team. Eventually this match went into more than one extra time and the result had to finally be decided by a penalty shootout. In this, blue house didn't score a single goal and Vrinda Sharma scored the winning goal. 
The next match was the boys final to be played between Red and Green house. In the league match between these two teams the match had ended in a draw but in the finals Green house showed that they were superior. In the first half they led 2-0 with goals by Rohan Kacker and Dhananjaya Chak. Red bounced back in the second half scoring half scoring one goal but the final score ended up being 3-1. Green House yet again won an Inter house tournament. How long till another house emerges victorious?

WHERE MY 
HEART LIES...

Here I am, away from home,
Living a camper's life.
Trees, rivers and mountains my only friends,
The wind like a whetted knife.

Beneath the twinkling stars,
On the ground I lay.
My mind racing a thousand miles,
To my home, far away.

My home is forever filled with joy,
Lit up with a million lights.
It is full of lively sands,
And that is where my heart lies.
