The Scouts and Guides Club of our school organised an exciting Knot-Tying Competition for students of Classes VI to IX on 9th August, 2025. The event was held to encourage practical skills, problem-solving abilities and teamwork among young Scouts and Guides.

For fair assessment, participants were divided into two categories based on age: Category 1 – Classes VI & VII Category 2 – Classes VIII & IX In the competition, students demonstrated their proficiency in creating various knots, showcasing techniques essential for handling diverse challenges in outdoor settings such as camping, rescue work, and equipment setup. Each participant was given a specific time limit to complete the task, adding an element of speed and precision to the challenge. The competition witnessed active participation, with students displaying confidence, skill and quick thinking. The event not only highlighted their technical abilities but also reinforced the importance of knot-tying as an essential life skill in Scouting. The judges appreciated the perfection, explanation, number of knots and time management of the knots presented. Winners from both categories will be awarded with certificates and cups in the upcoming Independence Day celebration on 15th August, 2025. The event was a memorable and skill-enriching experience for all involved.
