KG Colour Day Colour day was a wonderful experience for our little ones. They enjoyed each and every moment of the day. We celebrated the day through online and offline on 28th and 30th October 2021. It was really a colourful day. Offline celebration was inaugurated by our Principal, Sr. Anice and other Sisters. Kids dressed in different colour outfits made them feel like the butterflies in a garden. This day helped the kids to develop the observation and learning skills. We could see the brightness, love and happiness on their faces. Activities like colouring the pictures, sorting the objects, exhibiting the different colour objects etc helped to develop the cognitive skills. Kids decorated their background with the primary colours. They enjoyed to the fullest by doing the activities with their friends and teachers. Sang songs and danced along with their mentors. Teachers and kids spoke about the colour objects. The classrooms and doors were decorated with colour cutouts and colourful hangings. A lovely day passed by getting introduced to colour of love and happiness. It was an amazing learning experience for the kids. The colour day celebrations ended with a beautiful smile on each and every kid. As a part of the onam celebration, students and their family members wholeheartedly participated in the onapattu matsaram, Onanilavu. Teachers’ Day was celebrated virtually. Various programmes were presented by students for their loving teachers At the end of several fatiguing months of restrictions, offline classes were started in November as per the guidelines given by the State authority. All the standard safety procedures were observed and students entered the school premises with much hope and aspiration. This post-COVID reopening tookplace alongwith Kerala Piravi celebrations and the theme for the academic year,2021-22 ‘Light Tomorrow with Today’ was revealed.

We make our students abundantly rich in our culture and tradition too. Grandparents’ Day was celebrated virtually to awake this feeling in children. More than 600 grandparents participated in the virtual gathering. That gave our children an opportunity to remind themselves of what grandparents mean to them. Though their eyes were welled up, they were beaming with pride and joy when the children presented flowers to them and they were very much moved and inspired too by this kind gesture . 25 grandparents aged 80 plus were selected according to their age and were felicitated by the school, during Christmas celebration.

My Mother – My BFF
I have a mother, who is very brilliant, And on whom I am very reliant. I can trust her with my eyes blind, As she is so very kind. When in need, she comes to me racing, As she is very amazing! To her, I bow, As she is like a magical cove! To her low, I bend, For she is my forever friend! Aarushi Jithesh, of Class VII A has written a sweet poem about her ‘forever friend’ – her mother! This poem has been published in Booksomaina – Check it here https://bookosmia.com/stories/my-mother-my-bff-bookosmia/
