The events kicked off on the 23rd of January, 2021 with football game between Green and Yellow house (female category) and ran through the 7th week, the supposed mid-term break. All the events were keenly competed for among the house representatives during the week aforementioned.


The climax of the whole activity was the track and field event, the races which took place on the 27th February, 2021, and capped up with the music/dance competition.
