Independence Day was celebrated with much fervour at St. Stephen’s Cambridge school on Thursday. To celebrate the 78th Independence Day, the school hoisted the National Flag in its premises with immense pride.
Excited teachers and students poured in to celebrate Independence day. The school looked festive with wonderful Rangoli in tri colour, festoons and fragrance of fresh flowers everywhere.
The festivities started with the hoisting of the National flag by the Chief guest, Brother Solomon George, followed by the singing of the National Anthem by everyone present, with heartfelt emotion. Brother Solomon George applauded the students’ for their patience, perseverance and love for the motherland. He entreated the students to be vigilant about their duties and responsibilities and blessed them. He adds that it is great honour for us that this school is celebrating the first Independence day. It may be recalled that Delhi Brotherhood Society, which established the St. Stephen’s college in 1881, has started this very school on Delhi- Haryana border.
The cultural extravaganza started with a patriotic song and was followed by a series of mesmerizing dances, soulful patriotic songs, speeches by students and melodious instrumental music, arousing patriotic feelings in all. It was a joyous and thrilling experience for both the performers and the audience.
The memory of this special day is etched forever, in the hearts and minds of those who were present to witness it.
