AZADI DAY CELEBRATED WITH GUSTO

- By Student Reporter

Mumbai,

16th August 2018:

This year too, Independence Day was celebrated with the same gusto as ever at St. Joseph's School. The entire school was illuminated two days earlier.

Chief guest Mr. D.N. Jadhav, the city police commissioner, unfurled the tri-colour at 7.30 am. The national anthem was played by the school band while everyone stood respectfully in attention. Raghav Gupta, a Class IX student was felicitated by the Principal as he had won the gold medal representing the school at the State level for chess. A group of Class X students recited a patriotic poem "Mera Bharat". Class VIII presented a short play based on the 1857 revolution which impressed everyone. Headboy, Saurav Mehta, spoke on all the great leaders of India, who had played an important role in the struggle to drive the British out of India. The Principal addressed the Class X students who would soon be going out into the world. He exhorted them to cherish the democratic ideals which the school had inculcated in them. Sweets and light snacks were distributed to everyone.

The gathering dispersed after the playing of Vande Materam with patriotism and positive energy in their hearts.
