The principal and all the teachers began by garlanding the statue of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and offering flowers in tribute. The Children's Day celebrations then continued with a range of activities.

Children from Bal Vatika 1 to Class 5 took part in the fancy dress competition. The younger Bal Vatika children had a theme of special costumes showing Indian culture and regional diversity: Punjabi dress for Bal Vatika 1, South Indian dress for Bal Vatika 2 and Gujarati dress for Bal Vatika 3.

Children in Classes 1 to 5 had an open theme. They portrayed several inspiring figures and characters, among them the Rani of Jhansi, Bharat Mata and Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. The children's costumes, confidence and expression made the programme especially attractive.

To encourage creativity, teamwork and practical skills, students from Classes 1 to 12 set up food stalls. The theme was Gujarati dishes for Classes 1 to 5, South Indian dishes for Classes 6 to 8, and a variety of other Indian dishes for Classes 9 to 12.

The students laid out a range of dishes and showed their cooking, management, team spirit and entrepreneurship. The event gave them a chance to display their talents and to learn about Indian culture and the diversity of its food.

The students' enthusiasm and participation were particularly praised. The principal's leadership and guidance and the presence of chief guest Pramod Kumar Gupta added to the occasion. All the teachers contributed actively and cooperated to make the programme a success. Viplav Sharma coordinated the programme.
