Mascarenhas Guest of Honour and all other noteworthy/acclaimed guests on to the stage
with a resounding ovation, as they are ceremoniously escorted by the school captains,
accompanied by the resonant strings of our school band.

1. LIGHTING THE LAMP (Priyanshi And Vishwajeet )


Before commencing any auspicious endeavour, it is customary to invoke the blessings of
the divine. With this in mind, let us now proceed to illuminate the ritualistic lamp, a symbol
of knowledge that dispels all darkness of ignorance. Let us supplicate the divine presence
and seek the Almighty’s gracious blessings…. ensuring our gathering unfolds without any
hindrances.
(After lighting the lamp)
Today, we all have gathered here with a special purpose that delves into our inner selves
and explores the paths we must tread to bring positive transformation, and invites us to
rethink. But what do we exactly await? How do we rise like an eagle on a journey of renewal
and rise above our limitations? To answer these questions my dear audience we’ll soon
begin unveiling a story - one that holds a powerful message of rising above challenges
renewing ourselves from within. Now, I won’t give away too much just yet! But I encourage
you to remain receptive and stay engaged as the story unfolds, for every moment and
movement has been thoughtfully crafted to convey something meaningful. So, unwind,
open your mind, and let the upcoming performers take you on an enlightening experience,
as we explore the essence of personal and societal transformation.

2. WELCOME SPEECH & BOUQUETS (Aline and Rahul)


Rahul: Good afternoon to all, Aline Sarah Martin and I, Rahul Kr. are here before you. It’s
our privilege to be joined with these illustrious personalities whose distinguished presence
honours us greatly. We are particularly grateful for the presence of our revered Chief Guest
______________________ ______________________ of NTPC SSTPS, and the President Rt. Rev Louis
Mascarenhas,
whose remarkable contribution to [dash] has an enduring and
inspiring legacy that continues to motivate us all.
Aline: ______________________ stands as a true paradigm of excellence and integrity, inspiring
countless individuals through his dedication and vision. On behalf of SJS fraternity, I wish to
invite the Principal Rev. Fr. Dr. Vincent Periera to welcome the Chief Guest, The President of
the program Rt. Rev. Bishop Louis Mascarenhas and all other dignitaries to this programme.

Rahul: As a token of our sincere admiration and profound gratitude, I humbly request the
Principal to benignantly present a floral welcome to our esteemed dignitaries symbolizing
our heartfelt love and revered appreciation.

Aline: Thank you sir for honouring us with your presence. Once again, we warmly welcome
everyone, and we look forward to an inspiring event ahead.

3. Hoisting of the flag (Janhvi and Sumit)


Janhvi:
I hope everyone is keeping your spirits high. Presently, Sumit Patra and I, Janhvi Tiwari
welcome you all to this auspicious ceremony of flag hoisting. The flag of St. Joseph’s School
is more than a piece of cloth fluttering high in the sky; it is a symbol of harmony, unity, and
shared commitment of all Josephites. Under this flag, we come together as a family,
embracing each other’s strengths, weaknesses, dreams, aspirations and values. Whether
we are young students, just beginning our journey or the management and teachers guiding
the way, the flag reminds us that we are all parts of a greater whole, each one contributing
to the vibrancy and victory of our community.
When we see our flag flying high, it urges us to embrace positive changes, to make a
difference within our school family, within ourselves, and in the world beyond our school
walls. We reaffirm to be the agents of kindness, compassion, and progress.

Sumit:
“Today, we are incredibly privileged to have with us an array of distinguished individuals
who embody the values and aspirations we all hold dear. Their life and achievements reflect
the very qualities we strive to cultivate here at St. Joseph’s School: resilience, leadership,
and a passion for bringing positive change to the community.”
“As we all are waiting for this proud moment, with great respect and enthusiasm, I invite
our esteemed Chief Guest to hoist our school flag, which is our vision and pride. Let us all
stand in attention and respect the flag. [School anthem?]
ATTENTION…!
Thank you sir. I request everyone at your ease and take your seat.

Releasing of the Anthem:


Janhvi: What a beautiful and uplifting moment it was, as we all stood together, listening to
our beloved School Anthem after the hoisting of our flag.
Sumit: As you know, the anthem of St. Joseph’s School is more than just a song we sing; it’s
a powerful expression of our identity, our values, and our commitment to making a positive
impact in the world. This year, we decided to take a step forward in sharing this message
beyond the school.

Janhvi: We are thrilled to announce that, for the very first time, our School Anthem has been
professionally recorded and will soon be available on YouTube for everyone to hear. This
recording is not just about showcasing our anthem; it is about sharing the heart and soul of
St. Joseph’s School with the world.

Sumit: The anthem carries a powerful message, especially in these challenging times. We
wish that people from different walks of life, from different parts of the world, listen, reflect,
and join us in our mission to ‘Let Our Light Shine’.

Janhvi: This recording was made possible by a dedicated team of talented musicians,
singers, and production experts. We would also like to give a special mention to our pre-
eminent teacher Mr. Titus Crasta whose creativity and vision brought this anthem to life to
his heartfelt composition and lyrics. Let’s give a huge round of applause to everyone
involved in making this project a reality. Thank you for being a part of this remarkable
moment.

4. INTRODUCTION……CHAOS (RECORDING)

5. PRAYER DANCE (Sumit and Janhvi)


Vishwajeet: Prayer is the longing of the soul to assimilate with the divine power. Dear
parents, it’s time to invoke the divine grace and mercy through a melodic prayer dance.

Priyanshi: Well, that is why it becomes a sacred act of connection and communication,
rather than mere entertainment. Wouldn’t you agree it’s akin to a moving meditation?

Vishwajeet: Absolutely I agree! When we pray with words, the connection is internal. But
with prayer dance, entire body becomes a vessel for that communication, each movement
reflects the unique sentiments and intentions of the dancer.

Priyanshi: Dear audience… let’s dive right into this performance that serves as a means to
convey gratitude and honour the lord. Here come the students of class 5 before you, with
their prayer dance choreographed by Mrs Lilly George, Sr Helen Sofia and Mrs Namrata
Singh assisted by Mrs Ashwathy Nair. The students will showcase their talents of symmetry,
synchronisation and rhythm.
Welcome…class 5 (Both the anchors together)

6. MARCHPAST (Rahul and Aline)


Rahul: We would like to have your attention as we begin this grand display of discipline and
dedication. We invite you to witness the march past, a ceremonial display of unity and
grandeur.

Aline: Today, the students of classes 10 and 12, march with precision, symmetry and
honour, embodying the values of perseverance and teamwork. Each step taken, each
moment synchronized, reflects staunch and devoted practice and an unwavering
commitment to excellence.

Rahul: The march past is a tribute to the traditions and ideals that shape our school and its
community. Watch as they march, poised and resolute, a personification of the strength and
spirit we all aspire to achieve.

Aline: With pride in our hearts and respect for their dedication in our minds, let’s welcome
the awaiting contingents to take the show to further elegance. Dear well-wishers and
stakeholders, the march past, led by the school captains and vice captains, sports captains
and vice captains and the house captains and vice captains. At this moment, we thank Mr
Ashok Kumar, Mr James D Ralph, Mr Vimal Sharma, Mr Davis P P and all the School House
coordinators along with Mr Senumon Joseph, Mrs Anu Wilson and Mrs Rashmi Srivastava.

[Running Commentary]

7. SPEECH (Janhvi and Sumit).


One of the most awaited moments of today’s afternoon has now arrived. As we begin, I
have the honour of introducing someone whose presence adds unique significance to this
day and elevates our celebration to a whole new level. The President of our program, Rt.
Rev. Bishop Louis Mascarenhas exemplifies what it means to be inspiring, leading, and
creating positive changes. Known for his insightful guidance and unwavering dedication, he
not only achieved remarkable things but also possesses the rare gift of guiding others with
ease and grace.

Jahnvi: A true visionary, a trailblazer, a builder of dreams, he has been a source of


inspiration to countless individuals, igniting confidence and sparking ambition everywhere
he goes.
With our hearts full of respect and admiration, let us welcome on to the stage our esteemed
Guest- a true shining example of inspiration. Rt. Rev. Bishop, kindly come and grace the
occasion with your words of benevolence and love.

MEMENTO:

Sumit: Now I would request __________________ to present a memento to the President. This
memento expresses our heartfelt thanks and deepest gratitude to you for blessing this
programme with your acclaimed presence.
8. RELIGIOUS/COMMUNAL HARMONY. (OM AYUSH AND AIBHA)
Aibha : Thank you Rt. Rev. Bishop. We are really glad to have you amidst of us and your
valuable presence certainly blessed us.
As we commence our cultural programmes, Om Ayush Patra and I, Aibha Singh are here to
take you on a journey to explore the communal harmony.
India is a land of cultural and religious diversity. People belonging to different religions and
cultures live together in harmony. The concept of religious harmony is expanded as the
peaceful coexistence of followers of different religions. India cherishes the concept of unity
in diversity.
Om Ayush : This celebrates the idea of bringing together people from different cultural and
social backgrounds, finding common grounds for a cohesive and harmonious society.
Aibha:
Om Ayush : We hereby present the nursery kids in front of you who are all embellished in
fair alabastrine symbolising peace, calmness and tranquillity.
Aibha : The little angels of SJS have been prepared by Mrs Preeti Prabhu and Mrs Hema
Pathak assisted by Mrs Sunita Purti.

9. WHO AM I? (Aline and Rahul)


Rahul: Unveiling the mystery of Identity, ladies and gentleman are you ready to unlock the
secrets of self-discovery. In the grand tapestry of life, there are few questions that have
echoed in our hearts and minds since time immemorial: Who am I? What is my
purpose? These existential inquiries ignite a sense of self-awareness.

Aline: Today, we embark on a fascinating journey to unravel these mysteries. Through this
performance, our young students will demonstrate how we must evolve – letting go of old
habits and adopting values that truly uplift our community. Therefore, dear audience, let’s
remember that transformation begins within each one of us.

Rahul: In the world outside, we often witness chaos due to selfishness or money
mindedness which defile the very morality of the society. This programme will remind us
that we must choose the path of goodness.

Aline: The innocent yet powerful message today is that we must examine ourselves and
then make a change if we truly want to make the world a better place. This event of LKG
and UKG has been envisaged and programmed by Mrs Rinu Langan, Mrs Ankita Singh, Mrs
Anima Kumari, Mrs Vandana, Miss Shilpa __________________ along with Miss Sheela, Miss
Alispa and Miss Seema.
10. YOGA AND MEDITATION (Priyanshi and Vishwajeet)
Up next, we venture into a performance that underscores a profound tool for transformation
– encompassing both the physical and mental realm.
योग: कर्मसु
कौशलम् meaning ‘Yoga is skill in action’. This timeless wisdom reminds us that yoga and
meditation transcend mere physical practice, they are disciplines that forge inner strength,
mental clarity and equilibrium. To initiate genuine change within society, we must
undertake this inner transformation. So, let us welcome the students of class 8, with a huge
round of applause to demonstrate various Yoga asanas, exemplifying how these ancient
practices guide us towards a more mindful, central existence. We appreciate Mrs Ragini
Sharma, Sr Kiran, Mr Arun Mohan assisted by Mrs Anita Joshi for the training and perfection
that they brought to this programme.

11. SCHOOL REPORT (Om Ayush)


The years bygone were the stepping stones to our excellence. SJS never quits this
unrelenting progress though pulled back by various adversities. We would like to invite our
Rev. Fr. Dr. Vincent Pereira to come to the pulpit and present the school record of the year
2024-2025 written in golden letters.

12. FELICITATION – SILVER JUBILEE CELEBRANTS (Priyanshi and Vishwajeet)


We are moving to a programme which exalts two of our beloved staff members taking a
moment to thank them because of their insurmountable grandeur and indispensable service
of 25 years for the springing up of our beloved school. They are none other than our most
beloved and sagacious teacher Mr. Senumon Joseph and the magnanimous lady Mrs. Diana
Crasta. Their glistening and radiant presence have helped our school reach the zenith of
triumph. Mr Senumon Joseph is not only a resourceful and ingenious teacher, but also an
icon of hope for so many youthful intellects. He is renowned for lending his helping hand in
every activity. His knowledge in mathematics is truly praiseworthy and his ability to make
even the most complex concepts seem simple is an inspiration to us all.
The next personality we admire is the most vivacious and meticulous staff member, Mrs
Diana Crasta who is a part of the school management. She is the person who maintains the
school office professionally doing her work in silence. Her willingness and commitment to
her work is unrivalled.

Today is the day, nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much the heart can hold
but we will try to make them feel worthy and regarded especially on their silver jubilee
year.
So, I respectfully entreat Rt. Rev Bishop Louis Mascarenhas and ______________________ to
step onto the stage for felicitating and conferring honour on Mr. Senumon Joseph and Mrs.
Diana Crasta.

13. HEALTHY DIET (Rahul and Aline).


Aline: We move on to the next programme, one of the most fundamental pillars of physical
wellness -maintaining a balanced and nutritious diet. While physical training strengthens
our bodies, a healthy diet fuels it, providing the energy and nutrients essential for peak
performance.

Rahul: Precisely! A key part of taking care of our bodies is making mindful and cognizant
choices about what we eat.
A well balanced diet goes beyond satisfying hunger. It’s what shapes our endurance,
sharpens our minds and supports our growth. Each nutrient from vitamins to healthy fats
plays a specific role in perpetuating our health.

Aline: It’s time for a culinary revolution! To genuinely transform our lives, we must liberate
ourselves from the shackles of unhealthy diets. The antiquated practices of indulging in junk
food, skipping meals and relying on sugary snacks must become relics of the past. Today,
Class 1 is here to remind us of the importance of a healthy diet.

Rahul: Let’s sit back and enjoy the energetic performance by the students of class 1
instructed by Mrs Baby George, Miss Shraddha Kumari and Mrs Sanjeeta Toppo along with
Mrs Ingrid Ralph. Let’s cheer them on as they take us on this thrilling and exhilarating
excursion!

14. HYGIENE (Sumit and Janhvi).


Sumit: Another important element of staying fit and healthy is hygiene. Our enthusiastic
young students are ready to explore the essence of hygiene, the beauty of self-discipline,
and the transformative power of simple actions. But this isn’t an ordinary presentation;
these young stars will be expressing these ideas through the art of physical training
exercises!

Janhvi: That’s right! Today, we present the importance of hygiene-not just as individuals,
but as a community. These admirable students of class 2, astute beyond their years,
recognize that maintaining hygiene isn’t merely about personal well-being; it’s about
creating a world that’s safer, healthier, and more vibrant.
Sumit: Indeed! They believe-and will show us today-that each of us holds the power to ignite
change. By taking small, mindful actions to keep ourselves and our surroundings clean, we
contribute to a collective transformation. Just as one exercise strengthens the body. One
small hygiene habit can strengthen our community.
Jahnvi: Before we move forward, we’d like to take a moment to extend our heartfelt
gratitude to Mrs Sajana K, Mrs Shiji Joseph and Sr Alpana Ekka along with Mrs Shashiprabha
Tiru whose dedication and guidance have been instrumental in shaping this performance.
Let’s give them a big round of applause.

15. PYRAMIDS (Om Ayush and Aibha)


Aibha : I’m feeling more excited now, because we have something really fun lined up for
you.
Get ready to witness something jaw-dropping. It's time for Pyramid formation!!
Aibha :
Om Ayush : Give a huge round of applause as our talented students present before you a
magnificent display of strength, teamwork and coordination. They are trained by Mr James
Ralph along with Mr Prakash Marandi. Thank you dear teachers for preparing such an
adventurous programme.

16. LOVE FOR NATURE (…)


We have all seen posters urging conservation of trees and afforestation, haven’t we?

Yet, deforestation persists, with people around us actively practising it, but unfortunately we
tend to choose to ignore it. Campaigns like "Keep Clean, Go Green" and the Prime Minister’s
Swachhata Abhiyan encourage us to act, but how many of us truly dispose of waste
properly? Many of our activities continuously inflict harm upon nature though nature has
consistently provided for us with all necessary things. But diseases such as asthma,
respiratory ailments, and vector-borne infections are proliferating, claiming countless lives.
Hence, it is high time that we transform our approach and assume responsibility for
safeguarding nature, demonstrating our true Love for Nature. So, here are the young minds
of class 3, poised to impart valuable lessons on how to cherish and preserve the
environment. They are trained by Mrs Silvia Denis, Mrs Suma Boney and Mrs Shazia Bano
along with Mrs Anis Rajan. They definitely deserve a loud round of applause.

17. NURTURING VALUES (Priyanshi and Vishwajeet)


Values, typically quotidian activities of old days but now is something very fancy and
odious. They are supposed to be one of the most eminent dispositions in everyone’s life.
Modern posterity is known for ‘normalizing’ things in everyone’s own means. But we
pretermit the base of human personality that is moral values. In this digital world where
social values are eroding and no one giving momentousness to the basic values, ethics,
manners but consider these all to be old–fashioned and tedious. Wars are increasing, people
are suffering, the rich are getting richer and the poor are becoming poorer. In this world
where all moral, social and economic values are destroyed, we need a change – a self-
transformation to change ourselves and the aura all around. So, here are class 4th students
who will showcase different values with colours, such as saffron representing courage and
friendship, blue representing generosity and kindness, red representing compassion and
love and white representing honesty and peace. We appreciate Mrs Jisha Mathew, Mrs
Srishti Thappa and Sr Dibya Kiran along with Mrs Ragini Pathak for training these young
kids.

18. Felicitation of classes 10 & 12 toppers (Om Ayush and Aibha)


Now, we have come to another proud moment of today’s event – the Felicitation ceremony
of CBSE Examination toppers. We recognize and proudly appreciate the exceptional efforts
and results of our hardworking students. They will be honoured with certificates and
mementoes for their outstanding academic achievements.
We invite the Chief Guest and Rt. Rev. Bishop to kindly come and give away the certificates
and mementoes to the meritorious students of the academic years 2022 -2023 and 2023 –
2024. We request the merit holders to come upon the stage to receive the honour. If a
student is absent, parent may come to receive the felicitation.
Aibha : Firstly, we will felicitate the toppers of All India Secondary School Exam 2022-23 and
All India Senior School Certificate Exam 2022-23 who have truly made us proud with their
excellent performance in the board exams. I would like to call the chief guest
______________________ to felicitate these SJS prodigies.
Starting with AISSE (Class 10th) 2022-23 batch ……..
Continuing with the topper of AISSCE(Class 12th) 2022-23 ……..
Thank you sir.
And now we will felicitate the toppers of All India Secondary School Exam 2023-24 and All
India Senior School Certificate Exam 2023-24. Their hard work and determination have
paved the way for their bright futures. I would like to invite Rt. Rev. Bishop Louis
Mascarenhas to felicitate our super models.
Starting with AISSE(Class 10th) 2023-24 batch……………
Continuing with the toppers of AISSCE(Class 12th) 2023-24 ……..
Thank you Dear Rt. Rev. Bishop.

19. Aerobics:

S̲u̲m̲i̲t̲:̲ Yes..! These students have set the bar high—not just in academics but also in
showing us what dedication and perseverance look like. SJS gives equal emphasis to
developing a strong mind along with a strong body.

J̲a̲n̲h̲v̲i̲:̲ And that brings us to our next performance, an exciting aerobics display. Aerobics is
not just about getting your heart rate up—it’s about showing how physical activity can boost
your confidence, bring people together, and even fetch positivity to our community. It will
be amazing to behold how the simple act of rhythmic movement and exercise can transform
us from within, making us more confident, energetic, and focused

S̲u̲m̲i̲t̲:̲ Aerobics is all about movement and optimism therefore, all who are present here,
feel free to clap along and cheer. Are you all ready to have a feast for your eyes? Ladies and
gentlemen please give a warm welcome to our young performers of class 6 perfected by
Mrs Suja P George, Mr Upadyay and Miss Shefali Gupta along with Miss Luviza.

20. SPEECH/MEMENTO…CHIEF GUEST


Rahul: It’s our immense pleasure to introduce our Chief Guest ______________________ the
______________________ of NTPC SSTPS who has been a guiding light of inspiration making
uncountable contributions and empowering countless individuals along the way.
Aline: ______________________’s steadfast dedication to NTPC and associated institutions
resonates deeply with our mission here at St Joseph’s School, Shaktinagar. We are
incredibly blessed to have him with us today to share his insights that are sure to motivate
and elevate us all. Please give him a huge round of applause!
Aline: Thank you sir, for sharing your wisdom and percipience with us today.
Rahul: I humbly solicit the presence of our beloved Principal Rev Fr Dr Vincent Periera on
the stage to graciously confer upon our venerable Chief Guest a commemorative memento
symbolizing our profound appreciation and deepest gratitude.

21. LOVE FOR COUNTRY ( Om Ayush and Aibha)


Aibha : It is truly an honour for us as we come together to celebrate a feeling that unites us
all- the love for our country. A love that surpasses borders, that connects us as citizens
of a shared territory, and that reminds us of the deep history and traditions that shape us
every day.
Om Ayush : Patriotism is the pride in our heritage, the adaptability of our people, and the
belief that we have a responsibility- not only to ourselves but to future generations- to foster
and protect the ideals that make our country great.
Aibha : As we gather here, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by countless individuals
for the freedom, growth, and prosperity of our nation. Their courage and dedication serve as
the foundation which we stand today.
Om Ayush : So let us invite, with a big round of applause, the class 7 th students who will tell
you the denotation of patriotism. We are grateful to our wonderful educators Mr. Maya Ram,
Mrs. Solly Raju, Mr. C.S. Joshi and Mrs. Jyoti Shah who have worked tirelessly with the
students to make this program an exquisite one.

22. TAEKWONDO
Strength , discipline and confidence , these are the three pillars
of Taekwondo, a Korean martial art renowned for its dynamic kicks and powerful
techniques. But Taekwondo is more than just a combat sport, it is a discipline that embodies
respect, perseverance and self control.

St. Joseph’s School had introduced Taekwondo for girls focusing on self defence and
empowerment. Seeing its benefits it was made mandatory for both boys and girls later.
Since then we have witnessed our students grow in strength and confidence mastering their
art form.

One shining example of this dedication is Akshat Gupta, who earned his black belt in 2019.
Today, we have four more young and determined students – Aarti Yadav, Angel Priya,
Aradhya Singh and Atharv Singh – preparing for their black belt test in the upcoming session
of 2024-25.

In the previous year’s CBSE championship 12 of our talented students showcased their skills
with Aaradhya Singh winning a bronze medal. Building on that success, this year 10 of our
students participated in the same championship and brought home an impressive tally of
medals. Furthermore, 3 of these talented athletes advanced to the nationals where they
secured another bronze medal.

Today, our young Taekwondo enthusiasts are ready to showcase the power and agility that
this martial art demands. So, let’s welcome our talented performers with a big round of
applause who are instructed by Mr. Santosh Kr. as they demonstrate the spirit of
Taekwondo.
23. The Rise Of Phoenix
Om Ayush : Ladies and gentlemen, we have come to the pinnacle of our today’s program
that is – THE RISE OF PHEONIX. The Phoenix is a mythical bird which symbolizes
regeneration. Only one Phoenix exists at a time, and so when the bird felt its death was
near, it would build a nest of aromatic wood and set it on fire. But that’s not it’s end. This
immortal bird rises again from its own ashes and therefore lives forever.

Aibha : The Phoenix is a symbol of renewal, embodying the journey from démodé behaviors
and opinions towards a revitalized sense of self. Imagine standing at the edge of a great
transformation, much like the legendary Phoenix who finds itself at the crossroads of
destruction and resurrection. The old self - stuck in repetitive customs, outdated thinking,
and the delight of the familiar - is ready to let go.

Om Ayush : What’s holding us back? Fear of change? Past failures? The comfort of routine?
But here’s the exciting part : we are given the prospect to set it all aflame and spring up
anew.

Aibha : The “Rise of Phoenix” is about breaking free from those patterns that no longer
serve us. It’s like waking up from a deep sleep, realizing that there’s more to life than just
repeating the same actions. By daring to leave behind the elderly ways, we make room for
new possibilities. We create new wont, ones that nurture extension, pliability and creativity.

Om Ayush : The fire of transmutation, might seem intense, but it’s what fuels the rebirth.
It’s the courage to try, fail and then try again. It’s choosing to rewrite the script of who we
are, not based on the past but on the promise of a vivid, more zestful future.

Aibha : The embarking message of SJS for this perseptive congregation is “Transforming
ourselves to transform the society”.

And here we are as a family to create this transpose.

Om Ayush : We, as an individual are capable of A CHANGE - a significant change which will
reshape us all to become a better community. It invites us to ignite these old habits and
beliefs in a metaphorical fire, allowing us to set free from them.

Aibha : This journey isn’t easy ; it demands bravery, self-awareness, and a willingness to
step into the unknown. But once we come out, we’re well-built, focused, and equipped to
pursue life with new vigor.
Om Ayush : We would like to present before you all, the students of class 9 th and 11th who
represent the immortality that this wonderful bird really possesses. We would also extend
our gratitude to Mr. Ashok Kumar Singh, Mrs. Ligy T.O. , Mrs. Nancy Tagore, Mr. Anil Kumar
and Dr. Yogendra Tiwari, assisted by Mr. Mrityunjay Kumar, Mr. Jimmy Thomas, Mr. Nand Lal
Gupta and Mr. Nigin Paul. Thank you dear teachers.
