CHILDREN’S
DAY CELEBRATIONS
PRIMARY
SECTION
On
the 14th of
November every year, the birthday of the first Prime
Minister of India, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, is
celebrated as Children’s Day.
The
Primary Section of Indian School Muscat celebrated
Children’s Day on 12th November 2008, with
a variety of fun-filled activities for the children. The
celebrations began with a prayer song titled, “ Hamko
man ki shakti dena.” sung by all the teachers who were
also joined by the Principal and Vice-Principal, in
seeking blessings from the Almighty for their children.
The
Vice-Principal, Mr. Anand Prabhu, then enthralled the
children with a melodious number which he played on the
harmonica. To the joyous delight of the children, this
was followed by a peppy dance number performed by
‘Sher Khan – the tiger’ enacted by Mrs.Nandini
Hande. Then there was a Magic Show performed by noted
magician Wakil Khan. The children cheered him on as they
were held spell-bound by his variety of magic tricks.
Later, all the children of the Primary Section keenly
participated in the Handwriting and Art Contests which
were also held to mark the occasion.
All
in all, the Children’s Day celebrations at ISM were in
line with Chacha Nehru’s real message, that of
providing our children with a safe and a loving
environment in which to grow as well as provide them
with ample and equal opportunities through which they
can take great strides and contribute to the progress of
the nation.
