Prize distribution ceremony saw the achievers from various fields being honoured for their remarkable achievements.

    Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and charm and gaiety to life and to everything. This was translated into reality by the instrumentalists of TAFS through their mellifluous composition titled Atirek-The Melodious Greetings, which brought together the Ragas Bhairav, Kirwani, Asavari, Kaafi, Jog and Mishrit to spread the message that the Self is within all things and everything in the cosmos comes from the Self.

    The most spectacular event of the evening was the dance drama celebrating a soul stirring message that  within each of us are qualities that lie latent, till something or someone becomes the catalyst for a spur, a panoramic view of the myriad of ways in which we can touch upon the lives of children and transform the world for a better tomorrow! Through soul stirring dialogues, powerful poetry, music and dance, children created mesmerizing designs replete with powerful messages on stage.

    In her address, the Principal, Mrs. Amita Gupta, welcoming the Chief Guest and other esteemed guests, laid out the philosophy of the school.

            CLASS V HERITAGE WALK

            CLASS V HERITAGE WALK (30-31 OCT 2018)

            The children of Class V were taken on a Heritage Walk to Gandhi Smriti on 30 & 31 October 2018, during school hours. Gandhi Smriti holds significance as the place of martyrdom of the 'Father of our Nation', Mahatma Gandhi.

            The building which houses a museum is the Birla House, dedicated to Gandhiji, showcasing his contributions and involvement in India's struggle for freedom. The two rooms where Gandhiji spent the last 144 days of his life have been preserved carefully for people to see and understand the simplicity and greatness of a humble leader. The children were in awe of the great leader and his lifestyle. In the rear lawns is the Martyr's Column marking the exact spot where Gandhiji was assassinated by a fanatic. The children paid solemn tribute to 'Bapu' while reading Gandhiji's last words, 'Hey Ram', inscribed on the pillar. 

            They were pleasantly surprised to see various Science exhibits too and tried their hand on some working models. The Heritage Walk proved to be an enriching experience and a valuable lesson for life, as Gandhiji always maintained- ‘Simple life and high thinking’. The visit also proved to be of great relevance to them academically as this was an activity to introduce the topics, on Mahatma Gandhi, soon to be covered in their syllabus.
