A special Assembly marking Hindi Divas and also providing exposure to the talents of all the language departments of our school was held on the 13th of September, 2017 by the students of CS1 programme
“Hindi is our mother tongue. It is a scientific language. In our thirst for exploring new horizons of knowledge and learning new languages, we should not forget our mother tongue.”
Hindi Diwas is celebrated to inculcate love for the Hindi Language. To gain knowledge on the importance of the Hindi, 14th September is celebrated as Hindi Diwas all over India
The Assembly began with a prayer song. Grade 6 recited poems in Hindi. Grade 8 students performed a play, which emphasized on the importance of Hindi language, followed by a graceful dance performed by the girls of 8th Grade.
Various activities were arranged to commemorate the day to celebrate our National Language.
To feel the soul of a culture it’s indispensable to get connected with its roots, which are -folk tales, old traditional music and rhymes.
To feel the same for French culture and traditions, the French students of middle school collectively presented a Puppet Show based on an ancient poem written on a folk tale, by “Jean de la Fontaine,” “La cigale et la fourmui (Grasshopper and the Ants)”.
Further, 6th Grade students performed a very famous and ancient musical rhyme ‘Allouette’. All the performances were enjoyed and appreciated by one and all.
