FIFA Fest — a World Cup Day on campus

Ansar School Padinharangadi turned campus into a fan zone for FIFA World Cup Day. Students came dressed in the colours of their favourite national teams — Argentina, Brazil, Portugal, England, and more — with face paint and jerseys setting the mood from the morning assembly onward.

The day opened with a banner-drop ceremony: giant team banners unfurled from the stairwell balcony to confetti and cheers as the whole school gathered below. Through the day, classes rotated through football-themed activity stations, including a target-shooting game where students and staff took turns testing their aim, with teachers and school management joining in the fun alongside the students.
