Tribute to the Nation
Witty
International School, Pawan Baug, reinforced solidarity, unity and reignited
the sparks of Patriotism on 26th January, 2018 when the
Tricolour was hoisted by the Guests of Honour, Wing
Commander, Vikas Raghav, Indian Air Force, Captain Rajan Seervi, Indian Army, Lieutenant Rohit Yadav, Indian Navy
and Lieutenant Prateek Kumar, Indian Army while the teachers and the students pledged their allegiance to the flag and promised to carry
their nation to greater heights and achieve success in various walks of life with the National Anthem reverberating in the
surroundings.
An
extravaganza of colour, rhythm, pride & love for the country followed the
ritualistic flag hoisting. The Student Council formally welcomed the esteemed
guests to the school ground and the plethora of events began. The crowd cheered and
applauded as Student Council, students from all the four houses and the School
band marched past the saluting dais. The school band displayed harmonic
development and unparalleled rhythmic coordination among children, raising the
art of making music to a distinguished level.
The
programme commenced with a spectacular tabloid performance where we got a
glimpse of India on the wheels. Students mesmerised the audience by performing
on skates and segaway and presenting each state wonderfully. The highlight of
this act was that it was performed on a live musical performance- Sound of the
Nation, a multilingual musical displaying the diversity of India. This act
paved way for Kavi Sammelan where the patriotic fervour gripped the students as
they united the whole nation with a universal appeal of unity and brotherhood
in the form of poems inspiring Nationalism.
The Indo
fusion welcome dance showcased the women empowerment and the ability that they
possess to conquer the world. It was inspiring for every woman to know that today woman has earned
name in all the fields and today’s independent woman is leaving no stone
unturned to prove herself capable of doing everything. Any republic day event is incomplete without remembering the sacrifice
and sleepless nights spent by the armed forces to keep us safe and sound.Thus to
transcend the audience in that era a patriotic dance gripped the audience
paying a tribute to the defence personnels.
This was
followed by a spell-binding finale gymnast and human pyramid performance paying
our homage to the Nation by felicitating the Indian Armed Forces for the
commendable work done by them in protecting the country from internal and
external dangers. The Chief Guests while being felicitated were
overwhelmed with the students’ zeal and enthusiasm in involving themselves with
such finesse in the Republic Day programme. Wing
Commander, Vikas Raghav said,
“I am proud to see that the future of our country is in safe hands for I can
see unity, strength and self-realization within all of you. You are treading
cautiously on the path of becoming the face of the nation”. The event ended
with the vote of thanks rendered by the School President. Overall the programme
successfully showcased India’s progress from the pre-independence era to the
new millennium focusing on the core of India’s achievements and its unique
identity.
Principal,
Mr. Bijo Kurian stated, “As the future citizens of our country, you all need to
strive for a fully developed nation and put your efforts in achieving the same.
Remember that we need to take the true spirit from our National Tricolour and
strive to achieve our desire of a developed nation. Nothing can be impossible
if we stand united, work for the prosperity and fulfil our dreams of building a stronger
India.”
The
Republic Day programme ended with patriotism reverberating everyone’s minds and
happiness enveloping our souls.
