Republic Day Celebrations at Mahatma Gandhi Vidyalaya
Mumbai, 27th January 2014. The 66th Republic Day was celebrated with a lot of fanfare and grandeur at Mahatma Gandhi Vidyalaya yesterday. Students and teachers from all the classes participated in the plethora of cultural programs which took place in the school premises. The day began with the hoisting of
the national flag by our Principal Dr. Mehta at 7 am. The entire assembly of students sang the national anthem immediately after the flag hoisting. The school band marched past the ground
playing drums and trumpets. The members of the band were dressed in the colours of the school’s emblem and wore attractive sashes and headgears.
The cultural events were kick started with the dance competition where students competed with
one another in the solo and group dance categories. Miss Umang from Class 9 won in the solo category and Class 6 won for their colourful rendition of a folk song. After the cultural events, an environment exhibition was held. The event concluded with a group song by the teachers. It was truly a spectacular day for us at M. Gandhi Vidyalaya.
