“Celebrations infuse life with passion and purpose. They summon the human spirit.”
The Annual Day of a school is undoubtedly an occasion of celebration, felicitation, feast and festivity. The entire objective of having an annual day in the school is to create a harmonious connection of parents with the school and their children and let them appreciate and enjoy their child’s talent. On Saturday, November 04,2023, The Shikshiyan School, Gurugram celebrated its Annual Day 2023 with great enthusiasm and zeal. It was woven around the theme “Goonj - The Echo”. The school believes that every child must be given an opportunity to develop talents, showcase their talents, and harness their skills and attributes through such public performances.
This day is an occasion of celebration, where students display their talents through wonderful performances. The audience witnessed the virtues of peace, harmony, and happiness. Education is not just about academics; it's about nurturing well-rounded individuals who are not only knowledgeable but also compassionate, creative, and responsible members of society. Our annual function is a celebration of the holistic education we strive to provide.
To give a quick brief of the theme, the event commenced with the lighting of a lamp by our beloved principal ma’am, followed by a Welcome song and dance, Ganesh Vandana and Wing dance. Then there was a play named “Bholi” by the students of Class 10 with a social message. After that “Technology and Education dance” was performed by the students of Class 4. Dances like Bhangra, Garbha, Western Kathak and Retro to Metro dance, by the students provided one with the essence of the confluence of several cultures of our country. The play, “Pied Piper”, took one to a town in Germany, called “Hamelin”, to witness what happens when one denies to keep a promise. Respected Chairman Sir delivered the Annual Report on the school’s glorious Academic, Co-curricular and Sports achievements in the year gone by.
In the end, the show stopper, “Shaurya Gatha”, the heroic ballet, was performed by the students. It took one to a separate subliminal world remembering the sacrifices of our army personnel who protect our country even at the cost of laying their life. The program ended with a vote of thanks and Annual Day (Goonj: The Echo) 2023 was a roaring success.
