The principal addressed the students and teachers about harnessing the ethos of freedom for individual excellence and contribute collectively to nation building.
The students of grade 5 and 6 anchored the event.One student spoke about the significance of National Flag. The young songsters presented a melodious patriotic song, while the dancers danced gracefully to the tunes of a popular mash-up.
Remembering freedom fighters is a salient part of Independence Day. A vibrant Cosplay of freedom fighters was the spotlight of the celebration. An ethnic walk in the rich baritone of Usha Uthup showcasing our ‘Unity in Diversity’ gave a glimpse of our diverse culture. The program culminated with the vote of thanks and the atmosphere was charged with the spirit of freedom .
