Grandparent's Day

The students were looking forward to the Grandparent's Day with much enthusiasm and eagerness. The day began with the students  getting ready with gusto for the performances. Grade 4 sang the Grandparent's Day song and most of Grade 4 students were involved in the Choir singing Christmas carols for the nativity play. The Choir students dressed in white shirts, blue jeans, black belt and poinsettia flowers and bow ties for girls and boys respectively. 

The Choir mesmerised the audience and enthralled them with their magical voices. The Grandparent's Day song was a hit too. Grade 2 and 3 sang Hindi songs for the grandparents. The Early Years students showcased the nativity play on the birth of Jesus Christ. After the performances, the students and grandparents went to the different venues for activities planned out for them. Grade 4 grandparents got busy planting a sapling in a pot and painting the pot together. The grandparents then wrote messages for the grandchildren on hearts. The grandchildren had already made acrostic poems on their grandparents and these were laminated and handed over to the grandparents for keepsake. It was touching to read the poems written by the kids and the special heartfelt notes written by the grandparents. The love in the air was palpable and the special bond shared by the grandchildren and grandparents was celebrated.
At the end of the activity, the planted and painted pots were taken back home with them to be nurtured and grown together. 

It was a memorable day for all.
