‘Celebrating Life- Festivals Across the Globe’ was organised by The Shri Ram School on 14 October. Twelve elite national and international member schools of Round Square from India, USA, Brazil, Bangladesh, Oman, Jordan, Pakistan and UK participated in this event which started with the introduction of the participating Schools. The Principal of the host school addressed the gathering and welcomed them followed by a video presentation by the host school on the theme. The host school then invited the participating schools to present their video or Power Point Presentation on festivals of their city or region. It was an expressive way to know about the heritage, culture and traditions of each other. All the participating schools displayed their beautiful and delightful festival. Some of the discussed festivals were Onam, Gangaur, Teej, Rajasthan International Folk Festival, Kite Festival etc. There were graceful dance performances and soulful musical performances of their tradition by the participating schools. It is well said that the greatness of a culture can be found in its festivals. All the participants were delighted to learn about the festivals celebrated across the globe and got to know the story, history and motto of these festivals. The objective behind this small program was that all the participants should know the different festivals which showcases their culture and religion. After a session of 90 minutes the postcard call was over but the participants Nehal Gehlot, Eva Mehta, Jaya Sankhla, Udita Singh, Shruti Rathi and their Teacher In Charge, Mrs Vani Jangid from RKK availed the opportunity of knowing about the festivals across the globe and the importance of these festivals which add to their social lives.
