Independence Day

On 15th August 2018, Zebar School for Children celebrated Independence day with zeal and spirit befitting the occasion. The school choir set the pitch for the program with prayer songs. Students of grade 6 sang Vande Mataram, a national song which has aroused people’s emotions since decades and continues to do so.

The trustee of the school Mr. Ramesh Desai hoisted the National Flag as the students of grade 8 sang ‘Jhanda Uncha Rahe Hamara’.The entire atmosphere was pervaded with the vibrations of the patriotic song and ignited the feeling of nationalism. Academic Advisor of Zebar School, Ms Radhika Iyer graced the occasion.

A patriotic speech by Aanya Parekh of grade 8 A highlighted the freedom legacy of our country. She sensitised her peers to work towards fulfilling the promises we made to our freedom fighters.

The Principal,Ms. Sharmistha Sinha in her address said, “Period of misfortune, the rule of the British has ended to give a beginning to a new era where we have to bring in a change…..a change which should lead us to perfection. Ma’am Principal reminded the gathering that we feel more about our rights and less towards our duties and responsibilities. She urged the students to never compromise on values and principles.

Students pledged to remember those patriots who gave them their freedom and salute the martyrs who shed their blood at the borders to secure the security and integrity of our nation.
The function concluded with the rendition of the national anthem.
