Schools need to promote such activities in purpose-built campuses
KALATUK: Needless to mention that physical activity is very important for us as it is pivotal to our bodily development at a younger age. Later in life, engaging in physical activity, as basic as a walk in the park, eliminates many underlying health issues. However, unfortunately indoor activities have taken over our days as most of us are busy either in work or with our cell phones or gadgets. For students, physical games are fantastic and a good way to improve their motivation towards studies.
Schools need to promote such activities in purpose-built campuses and not the schools being operated in bungalows situated in residential areas.
