Ganesh Chaturthi Celebration at WIS, Atun Road, Bhilwara (Grade 3 to 10)

 

Witty International School always try to make the children learn and understand the premise of the festivals if we are to celebrate them meaningfully because it not only enlightens children about their culture and traditions but also helps them build religious tolerance. Something that is the core of our wonderful country and that’s why, Witty engages the students in a variety of activities and programmes to encourage them to celebrate every festival in a different manner. People were wholeheartedly waiting to welcome Bappa at their home, so students of Witty International School, Atun Road, Bhilwara enjoyed ‘Modak Making Activity’ on Saturday, August 22,2020 as Modak is considered to be the favourite sweet of the Hindu deity, Ganesha. It begets him the moniker modakapriya (one who likes modak) in Sanskrit. Students of grade 6^th to 10^th had an amazing experience by preparing Modaks on their own using fireless cooking method and using easily available ingredients at their homes. Students were pre informed to be ready with the ingredients such as desiccated coconut, finely chopped dry fruits,condensed milk etc. The concerned teachers first instructed the students to sanitize their hands for the safety purpose. Students were looking real chefs wearing chef caps and apron to be a part of this activity. Students of grade 3 & 4 participated in the wall  hanging making activity. They passionately presented their activity. After getting involved in these hands-on activities, students understood the unifying and binding spirit of the festival
