India is known for its
rich varied culture and heritage. Festivals which form a part of our culture
beautify our lives. They bond us together, rejuvenate us and bring us close to
our culture. Every festival comes with its own meaning. These celebrations
across the religions teach us to become secular beings and above all global
citizens. We learn to respect each other and learn to be humane.
We, at Orchids,
celebrate festivals to acquaint our students with their roots. Keeping this in view
Raksha Bandhan was celebrated by our pre-primary students on 01/08/12. Girls tied rakhis to boys’
wrists. Rakhis used were hand-made. Music and songs related to the festival
were played. The significance of this festival was experienced by every one including
our prinicipal Ms. Mona Mehdi.
