Janmashtami @ Sancta Maria


Sancta Marians celebrated Janmashtami today. When this event was announced everyone was very excited and looked forward to the event. All the kids and members of staff participated on this occasion. Preparations were planned well in advance and executed to perfection.

Kids came in traditional attire and were enthusiastic about the celebration right from the morning. Dandia sticks were hand made by staff members in school. The kids also took part in a “Dahi Handi” breaking event. While the senior kids had to sweat a lot to break the handi the elementary kids took all of us by surprise when one of them broke the handi in the first minute itself. While some kids had a pout on their face due to the lost opportunity of  breaking the handi, they all forgot about it when the whole school started dancing to a medley of old Hindi songs in the greens. The era of the songs didn’t matter and everyone was swaying to the melodious tunes.
