Question

Report writing arranged on independence day

Answer 1

It was the 15th of August, 1994, the 46th Anniversary of our Independence. I was entrusted with the work of organising the Independence Day celebrations at my school.

Instructions had been issued by the Government as to how the Day should be celebrated but I was given a free hand to draw up a programme and to make arrangements for the celebration of this momentous

ADVERTISEMENTS:

Day. I called a meeting of the monitors of the different classes, and told them that it was our function of the school and we had to make it a great success. Each class was given the job of white­washing the walls of its class-room, paintings its floors and var­nishing the furniture.

Our school authorities also gave us full co­operation in making us do this work very successfully and a week before the 15th August, it appeared that some marriage cer­emony was to take place.

The students were busy in preparing festoons and flags for the occasion. The walls were being white­washed, doors were being painted up and the furniture was var­nished. There was activity on every side.

At last the 15th of August came and early in the morning all the students of the school had gathered. The flag hoisting cer­emony was to start at 8-00 a.m. but we were there at 6-00 a.m. in the morning in order to clean the lawn, put up the flag and arrange the chairs. At 7-30 a.m. everything was spike and span.
