Janmashtami 2009

Festivals are an integral part of our life in India, potraying our diverse cultures & rich heritage. We celebrated the festival of Janmashtami at our school on Thursday 13th Aug 2009 with our little Krishnas & Radhas.

The children enjoyed viewing the Krishna Jhanki & listening to tales & bhajans of lord Krishna...

Making & savouring "besan ladoos" (after all, mehnat ka phal meetha hota hai!)…

Thanks to all our parents for joining us in this celebration & making it a memorable one!

Children at work

We often say that children have no attention span but give them something interesting & watch them concentrate ...

Rainy Season

While the rains in Mumbai continue to play truant, we had a “Monsoon” theme last month at our school.

We talked about rain wear & demonstrated its use.

We talked about rain creatures & children were quite fascinated by the family of snails that Jyoti found for them.

All we need now is rain & that too, lots of it !!!
