This also inculcated in them the habit of being resourceful. The positivity of seeking blessings by prayer was felt across all the grades.


It was a blissful and fun-filled activity. It also reflected the devotional feelings of students and their parents. They all were excited to keep their handmade idols for puja on the auspicious day of Ganesh Chaturthi.


The festival in India plays a key role in strengthening human relationships and enhances to bring about unity among people. HIS always takes an opportunity to encourage different age groups by organizing various activities. This was a small step to protect the environment. The Principal, Mrs. Renu Patil, appreciated one and all.
