We had exciting food and game stalls, in the school grounds, next to the area adjoining the pickle ball court. Stalls, with mouthwatering refreshments, snacks, and beverages, not to mention jamun, sandwiches, burgers and ice creams, managed by the staff along with student volunteers, were set up, where the students and parents thronged in large numbers.

But the highlight of the day, was in the basement arena – ‘the scary house ‘, meticulously set up by Ms Kalpana and team.
On the whole, everyone at the school campus enjoyed to the fullest, carrying back home positive vibes, tears of unbounding joy, memories of childhood and love.
