MUMBAI, SEP 3, 2018: Students from standard three of Matunga-based Don Bosco High School celebrated Cultural Day – a day which motivates children to be confident before an audience – on September 1.
The programme began on a humorous note with two students dressed as grandparents, mimicking their mannerisms and extending a hearty welcome to the guests in the audience. The students then invoked God's blessings on the assembly through a prayer dance.
An action song 'Long live love' by the students of standard 3 C prompted parents to shake a leg and involve themselves in the day's proceedings. A skit through song and dance was then enacted by the students of class 3 D on the theme of the day 'Helping Hands make good neighbours'.
The Rector, Father Crispino D'Souza while addressing the gathering said, "We need to take care of each other. There is a God up above who cares for us."
The execution of the day's programme highlighted the importance of teamwork. The Principal, Father Bernard Fernandes echoed these thoughts in his speech while congratulating the entire team for the performance.
"We thoroughly enjoyed our Cultural Day. We realised the importance of teamwork. A sincere thank you to all our teachers!" Ayaan Rao, a student of standard 3 A, said.
