Janmashtami

Janmashtami marks the birth of Lord Krishna. It is
one of the most significant festivals celebrated with
much joy and enthusiasm across India. On this joyful
occasion, the Pre-Primary celebrated Janmashtami in
an online assembly with their usual enthusiasm on 11
August 2020.

The celebration started with a storytelling session
that was presented to the children with embedded
video. The message of the story was: “Bring a wave of
joy in the society”. The weaving of the story was done
by relating with Little Krishna. To keep the joyous
festive spirit alive, the children were encouraged to
celebrate the festival with their families. They were
told about the universal values that are a part of the
occasion.
