EASTER CELEBRATION (NIRVANA)

Easter is associated with celebrations of spring. When we talk of Easter, we are reminded of Easter eggs.

One of the oldest spring symbols in the world is the egg. The oval shape of the egg is the same shape of a

raindrop and a seed. These two are important life-giving sources. The egg promises new life as in spring,

birds, and many other animals are hatched from eggs.

In the Easter Special assembly, children and teachers dramatized the beginning of life from an egg. To

keep up with the tradition our little chefs dished out Easter eggs and also crafted Easter bunnies & chicks

puppets for their portfolios.

Rangoli making 7th November (NIRVANA)

Rangoli is a traditional Indian art of decorating the entrance to a house.

Diwali is celebrated, to herald the coming of the goddess Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth. Rangoli

is created at the entrance of the house to welcome the goddess herself.

Traditional rangolis were made of rice powder and with time, people started using variety of

colours. The reason why our ancestors used rice powder was to feed birds, insects and the other

lives that thrive in the soil.

Rangoli is a timeless tradition that is followed all over India. Children with the help of teachers

created beautiful patterns to welcome the festival of lights.

BROWN COLOR DAY(NIRVANA)

Trust, support, loyalty, understanding, empathy, intimacy, conflict, anger are some of the emotions

that can be attached to this bond. Each moment spent with a friend is a moment added to time.

the wrists of their friends and promised to remain friends for ever.

RAKHI MAKING(NIRVANA)

Raksha Bandhan is celebrated on the full moon day in the Hindu month of Shravan. The festival

signifies the unblemished bond of love between a brother and a sister, which is one of the deepest and

noblest of human emotions. 'Rakhi' is a special occasion to celebrate this emotional bonding by tying a holy thread

around the wrist. It means 'a bond of protection', and Raksha Bandhansignifies that the strong must protect the

weak from all that‟s evil.

This ritual is not confined to a family but also extends to the neighborhood. When a Rakhi is tied on the wrists of

close friends and neighbours, it underscores the need for a harmonious social life, where every individual co-exist

peacefully as brothers and sisters. All members of the community commit to protect each other.

Our young Shalomites enjoyed preparing “ Eco friendly rakhis” for their portfolio files.
