Anbudan 2025: A Celebration of Gratitude

Every act of kindness strengthens the threads that bind a community. Anbudan — meaning “with love” — is one such moment of togetherness at Shiv Nadar School, Chennai.

Our annual gratitude initiative, Anbudan 2025, was a heartfelt celebration dedicated to the pillars of our school — our support staff, lovingly called Akkas and Annas. These are the individuals who quietly ensure that every classroom is ready for learning, every corridor is safe, and every corner of our campus feels welcoming.

In a touching gesture, students personally handed over thoughtfully prepared bags of goodies to them, sharing smiles, laughter, and words of thanks.

Families contributed generously to this annual initiative, while students expressed their love through handmade notes and warm interactions. The day reflected the compassion, empathy, and sense of belonging that define our school community — reminding us that appreciation, when expressed with love, builds lasting connections.

Anbudan stands as a reminder that compassion is not an event but a way of being. It reflects the very essence of our school culture — one that celebrates empathy, respect, and shared humanity.
