2. India is a very large country and we have many cultures and
religions here. There are Hundreds of festivals which are
celebrated every year with a lot of enthusiasm. There Is joy and
happiness all around. These festivals are the ones which unite all
the people.
In India every region and religion has something to celebrate
about. Vibrant colors, music and
Festivity make the country come alive throughout the year. All the
festivals celebrated have a
Special story behind them. We have chosen this topic because
India is a land of colors and
Festivals and so we thought that we could tell you’ll about some
of the major festivals of our
Country. Out of the many festivals we celebrate here we have
chosen the three festivals,
GANESH CHATURTHI, NAVRATRI and ART FESTIVAL of our school.
4. The “ART FESTIVAL” of our very own Queen Mary
School was hosted for the first time in our school in
the year 2012. We had various events right from
drawing, painting, craft to jewellery making, pot
painting, mask making and the fashion show where
we stitched our own outfits. We had students right
from standard 5 to 10 taking part in this competition.
The competition was based according to our age
groups, and so were the events. The competition
went on for a week. There were special timings
decided for the competition every day during school
hours so that we can balance our studies along with
it.
5. We had judges who use to come and judge the various art
Events. Through this Art Festival people’s talents and skills
Were exposed. We saw so many unexpected and beautiful
Artifacts being made by the very own students of our
School. We had the first, second and third place for every
Event. There was excitement and happiness in the
Atmosphere. Everybody was so enthusiastic. We had
Certain competitions like the ‘Rangoli’ and ‘Mehndi’
Were held for our teachers too. Every student from form
5 to 9 was a part of this festival which lasted for a whole
Week.
8. This is the last of the 3 festivals we
have chosen. We are very glad that
EUMIND has given us this
opportunity to explore our festivals at
a deeper level. We are very happy
that we are able to make you’ll aware
about our festivals and share our
cultures with you’ll.
THANK YOU!
