Where the mind is without
fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into
fragments by domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms
towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost
its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee into
ever-widening thought and action--
Into that heaven of freedom, my father, let my
country awake.
-- Rabindranath Tagore (Gitanjali)
Gaiety and patriotic fervour marked
72nd Independence Day celebrations at WIS, Pawan Baug on Tuesday,14th
August, 2018. Students of Primary Section organised a cultural programme which
included beautiful dance performances, speeches; motivational songs, etc as the
highlights of the celebrations. With their show India Awakens, Wittians
reminded each and everyone that 15th August is just not another holiday but a
day of honour and pride for every citizen. This auspicious event was graced in
the presence of Brig.Sidhir Sawant who shared his Kargil Base Camp experiences
and motivated students to keep the flame of unity and happiness
alive.
The cultural program was a
plethora of historical achievements manifested in a graceful, touching
dance. Our Wittians celebrated with mélange of patriotic activities
which created an atmosphere of national pride on the premises of the school
campus. Indeed, it was a day of joy
and love, showing respect and homage to our freedom fighters, making a better
place for Indians to live and experience the freedom, peace and unity in diversity.
