DIWALI MELA
By Amit/Amrita
The festival of Goddess Lakshmi and Festival of lights came alive in our school on 27th October. The school organised a two-day Diwali Mela in the school ground. The whole school wore a festive look. The building were illuminated with earthen lamps and lanterns. The reception hall and the corridors were decorated with marigold flowers which are considered auspicious. Children were very excited and had lot of fun. The main attraction was different food stalls which were set up by the students which included Indian, Continental, Italian and Chinese food. There was also a stall which displayed decorative and perfumed candles and many other decorative items made by the school children which were also meant for sale. People in large numbers purchased those candles and decorative items to motivate the children. On the second day, a cultural program was organised which stole the hearts of the viewers. Everybody appreciated the enthusiasm and endeavor of the students. The participants were awarded prizes by the Principal for their overwhelming performances.
It was an eco-friendly Diwali as there were no fire- works. Students were also asked to spread the message of celebrating eco-friendly Diwali. Our Principal briefed the students about the harmful effects of fire crackers on the environment.
