Eid & Ganesh Chaturthi Celebration (30/8/2011)


Festivals are a part of our lives. They beautify our life. They are just not meant for fun but they also teach us something as every festival brings its own message or purpose.
We, at Orchids also celebrate festivals to inculcate the spirit of celebrating festivals among our pre-primary students. We teach them their importance too. Our motto towards celebrating festivals is to mould our students into secular citizens.
With these goals, we celebrated Eid and Ganesh Chaturthi in our school. As a part of Eid’s celebration we prepared sheer khurma. We preached them the importance of prayers, namaz and giving alms. As a part of Ganesh Chaturthi’s celebration, one of the students was made to dress up like lord Vinayaka. We taught the importance of Ganesh and his favourite food too. The atmosphere was very festive and colourful because of these celebrations. It is needless to say that our children enjoyed a lot.
