Answer:
It’s an online Christmas for all schools this festive season yet there’s no dearth of excitement with Spirit Week, Secret Santa, and karaoke sessions
Tis the season to sing carols and usher in Christmas. However, due to covid restrictions, and all schools conducting classes online, Christmas celebrations have also moved online. But students and teachers have come together to make sure they keep the festive spirit alive and kicking.
Extra-curricular activities give a platform for students to socialise, develop new skills and discover hidden talent. In the past few months, as we adapted to the virtual education system, our focus was to keep momentum on this front as well,” says Nalini Ponnappa, Academic Head, Vidyashilp School. This year, to start bringing in the festive spirit two weeks prior to Christmas, teachers combined Christmas stories with some of their lectures. “On the day of the festival, students from Classes 1-3 will dress up in red, green and white, wear a Santa cap and sing Christmas carols together in a karaoke setup. Additionally, to promote positivity, each child will write affirmation for one another that will be read out as part of the celebration. Teachers will also play a game called ‘Freeze’ with the children,” Ponnappa says.
