Sarla Birla Gyan Jyoti invited schools over the country on
7th July 2022 to Celebrate International Friendship Day. It started with their Principal conveying his gratitude towards AFS for giving them the opportunity to host this event. He enlightened the participants that how friendship and life go hand in hand. He also mentioned that friendship is not concerned with age and that anybody of any age can be a friend.
RKK’s participants were Nehal Gehlot, Lavina Bhawnani, Jaya Sankhla, Soumya Joshi, Saima Singh and Kumkum Chauhan with their Teacher Incharges - Aashna Jain & Amba Singh Jhabua.
The speech of the Principal was followed by a refreshing ice breaker session in which they asked the participants to give their friendship the signature of a Bollywood movie. Next in the row was a thoughtful discussion on promoting friendship over war and also that the concept of peace is always a better option than a war. This was dogged by giving examples of modern history. Tracked by an act from the guest school- All Saints College Nainital, on the topic, a friend in need is a friend indeed, the event continued with an address on great bonds in Indian mythology. They gave examples of the friendship between Lord Krishna and Sudama. The next archetype was of Lord Krishna and Draupadi. Stalked by a speech on friendship and well-being and describing the roads of friendship, the students walked in the past two years. Useful information on the stereotypes that people have put on friendship, toxicity in friendships and how to identify them was given. During this session the host gave some dialogues and asked delegates to name the movie from which the dialogues were taken. The event was put to an end with some performances by the guest schools including the recitation of a beautiful poem- The Friends by Rudyard Kipling. The session was greatly enjoyed by all.
