Independence Day Celebration @ Early Years
To infuse learning with patriotism and self- expression amongst our children, we celebrated Independence Day with a distinct flavour to experience the real meaning of freedom by living it on Tuesday, August 13, 2019.
The day started with the children attending a special Musical Assembly, ‘Sargam’ where Year I Gir children presented a special assembly in the Circle of Love. This was followed by ‘Wings to Fly’ activity, wherein a series of child- centered activities were carried out in the Early years wing and the Activity Centre, giving children the liberty to choose the activity they would like to do. The KG children were divided into groups which also gave them an opportunity to mingle with their peers from other sections and enjoy as a cohesive group.
The Year I children had ‘Kite Making’ craft activity to enhance their fine motor skills.
