Rashtriya Life Saving Society (RLSS) winners

For the first time, the school participated in the National Life Saving Championships held at Genesis School, NOIDA in June 2013.  This event had over a hundred participants from across the country and competition was tough. The zones with climatic conditions that favoured all year round swimming, established a lead. Special training sessions were held in school at the start of the summer holidays for the team. Despite the tough competition, two of the boys won silver medals in the U16 and U14 categories, namely Arunabh Uttkarsh from Oberoi House and Nehansh Saxena from Hyderabad House respectively. The other boys who participated in the championship were Pranjal Bhatt, Rohan Agarwal, Divyant Sapra, Agastya Shetty and Tanmay Gupta. They were accompanied by Mrs. Katre who was an Official at the event and has also been invited to be an Official at the Commonwealth Life Saving Championships to be held in Australia in September 2013.  As this is a relatively young sport in India, it provides the boys with an opportunity to make a mark at national level, and possibly inter-national level.
