Sports

Since the establishment of Manarat Dhaka International School and College in 1979, this school and college has been excelling in academic performances beyond margins and numbers and also marking their presence in extracurricular activities by bounds and leaps. A significant part of extracurricular activities is sports. The organizing of the inter-class football tournament for boys, inter-class badminton tournament for the girls and annual sports for all of the students have been present from the very beginning. These tournaments create a bond between the seniors and the juniors like no other. It transcends the realm of mere classmates and creates a feeling of brotherhood. This type of bond helps each other to develop more not only as a player but also as a humble sportsperson. At the end of each year’s tournament, all of the students bid farewell to the most senior class with utmost dignity and respect. The students also give the most senior class a walk of honour to their last match.
