“We believe that children are the future, treat them well and help them go the way, show them all the beauty they possess inside…..Children’s day in CSK focused on unearthing the hidden treasures in their lives. A series of competitions were held right from drawing, collage making, flower making, pot decoration, poster making, advertisements and races, which brought out an array of talents from our Carmelites.
The celebrations started off with a prayer led by the sisters invoking God’s blessings on every child and a flashback to the man behind this day-Cha Cha Nehru, the 1st Prime Minister of India who had a great love for children. The children of the primary section were entertained by their teachers who danced to the strains of Sha-la-la-la-la and a Bollywood medley. The Principal stole the show as she joined in the dance. The highlight of the programme was a poetry recitation by the teachers dressed in Carmel uniforms. It was a sight to behold, much to the delight of the children.
The middle school went on an exciting journey with the seven dwarfs digging away, around the world, wherein the teachers put up dances right from Hawaii and sunny Spain to Japan in their quest for treasures. The secondary teachers expressed their affection through a mosaic of a skit, melodious songs, vibrant dances and inspiring messages.
The process of education involves discovery through arduous work only to yield rare and precious jewels, our children whom we send forth with a sense of pride to adorn humanity with their limitless potential. It ended with a treat of Ferrero Rocher to each child. What could be more thrilling? It was ‘A Happy Children’s’ Day” indeed.
