On 2nd March 2024, Wellington College International Pune hosted a friendly football match against pupils from Mahindra International School and City FC Pune. The event, organized by Mr Amid Esmaeili, our PE teacher, was not just a display of sportsmanship but also a testament to the belief in sports' ability to develop strong partnerships. Mr Esmaeili's role as the referee ensured fair play and a competitive yet friendly atmosphere. This initiative aligns perfectly with the school's commitment to a holistic model of education, where sports play a vital role in shaping well-rounded individuals. Wellington College International Pune understands the value of sport and provides a wealth of opportunities for all pupils to excel at all levels. This commitment not only enhances sporting abilities but also transforms the life chances of young people in their personal, social, academic, and working environments.
