Our young Presidians started the assembly with beautiful Gayatri Mantra, followed by a stage act on the topic- Festivals. The students shared their learnings about some of the upcoming festivals like- Christmas, Lohri, Makarsakranti and Mahashivratri through stage acts. Students also shared the importance of celebrating these festivals. They were really happy to present themselves on stage in front of their parents. Parents were also satisfied and were mesmerised by watching their kids perform on stage with great confidence. The show ended up with the melodious school song- ‘We are Presidians’.
