In preparation to celebrate Parents' & Grandparents' Day, Std VII team started in early July. The teacher conducted an online craft class on July 5th, 2021 where Std VII students were taught how to make an origami envelope and small hearts and flowers which were used to make the card even more beautiful. For the next two weeks, students of Std VII were asked to spend time with their families and 34 students sent in their pictures. It was nice to see them helping their parents in household chores, playing carrom and board games together, as well as praying and doing Yoga. Some of them applied mehendi on their mother's palms. The teacher then made a video of all these memories. This video was shared on Zoom at the weekly class meeting held on July 23rd. A prayer service was also conducted, praying especially for the families of our students and for their well-being during this pandemic. The students were encouraged to celebrate with their families this weekend and do things to make parents and grandparents feel special.
The students of Std VII A celebrated this day via Zoom app. The celebration was attended by 32 students.
The class teacher also prepared a PPT, a prayer and a video of the student's active participation for the day. Students were also shown YouTube videos on Parents day. The students thoroughly enjoyed the virtual programme and sent pictures of the same.
On July 26th, the students of Class IX gathered together to celebrate the occasion of Parents' Day. Prior to the actual celebration, each Class Teacher conducted a card-making activity with their own classes. The entire programme was put-together by the students themselves, with wonderful performances of music, song & dance. Parents were also quite thrilled with the games that were conducted for them, as it reminded them of their own school days.
The card-presentations by the students were much appreciated by parents and many hugs were exchanged.
Teachers of class X had organized a Virtual Parents' Day Celebration on 25th July, 2021 at 11 am. A Talent Contest was held for both parent and child to represent their talents.
Parents and students were very enthusiastic and 11 students along with their parents participated in the contest. The first judge for the programme was none other than our very own Vice Principal Sr. Jenny. The second judge was Mrs. Neelam Tambe Barretto.
The Talent Contest gave the students and their parents a platform to showcase their talents and abilities. The programme began with a prayer. The participants displayed their abilities by singing, dancing, drawing, painting, mehendi, performing a puppet show. The show was thoroughly enjoyed by all. It also witnessed the potential and hidden talents of our dear students and their parents.
