Annual Sports Festival 2026

Devi Academy Senior Secondary School celebrated its Annual Sports Festival on 28 September 2026 at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Chennai. The school chooses this venue so students can perform and compete at a stadium of international standards, and run on an artificial turf.

Lt. Gen. Ananthnarayanan graced the occasion as Chief Guest and was received by the school band. The programme opened with Tamizh Thai Vaazhthu, Vande Mataram, and an invocation to Lord Ganesha. The ceremonial flag hoisting was followed by the March Past of Classes XI and XII. The Chief Guest and School Correspondent, Ms. R. Jeyalekshmy, took the salute.

Class X presented a yoga display, and students of Classes III to IX followed with a class-wise drill. The finals of the track events were held at the same time.
