JOY
OF ANANDUTSAV OCTOBER 2007
CIRS VIDYA VAIBHAV
It
is time for students, their parents and staff members
of the school to get together in a festive ambience
for three days! Welcome to our campus!
Although
we know some of the reasons for our get together every
year it is good to remind ourselves it is a nice forum
in a festive ambience for a multi-dimensional parent-student-school
interaction, during which we understand each other better
and establish a better rapport to be able to take up
coordinated approaches to guide our children better!
What better ambience can be provided for doing all this
than that of a festive occasion with all of us doing
so many things together? The overall theme for the Utsav
this year is to celebrate India.
As
all of us know India, our country, represents a concept
well beyond and older than that of the nation state.
The importance and significance of India has been waxing
and waning in the areas of science, technology and business.
But the one area in which our country shines eternally,
whether in an explicit or implicit manner, is in the
deep resilience and silent wisdom that is reflected
in the strengths of our society and its culture. It
is due to its plurality, diversity and ability to learn
and absorb from other cultures that it has achieved
what are recognized presently as strengths of the country.
Diverse languages, food habits, traditions, open-mindedness
to learn from others and assimilate the same into our
thoughts and attitudes and actions are some of the hallmarks
of our country.
To bring about an awareness of the beauty and strengths
of our country is the theme and purpose of the Anand
Utsav - Vidya Vaibhav planned from 2nd to the 4th October
07. With this theme in mind your children have put together
for you the following exhibitions in the academic blocks.
