Chelsea, Shimla, celebrates Grandparents Day

The school celebrated Grandparents' Day with joy, reverence, and cultural vibrancy. The Chief Guest for the occasion was Suraj Prakash Ranta, Retired Assistant Commander, who was awarded the President's Award for Meritorious Service by the President of India on Republic Day in 2013. The programme began with the introduction of the chief guest and the ceremonial lighting of the lamp. This was followed by a soulful prayer dance and a lively welcome song presented by the Kindergarten. Principal Sr Greta addressed the gathering with her motivational words and a PPT was presented showcasing the institution's progress and commitment to holistic education. A special highlight of the day was a play on the life of Mother foundress, that was beautifully enacted by the Kindergarten children. Through their simple yet powerful performance, the little ones brought alive the values of faith, compassion and service that guided the life of the Foundress. The cultural programme sparkled with a series of colourful dances - a retro dance, a modern dance and the traditional Himachali Nati by tiny tots which enthralled the audience. The chief guest was felicitated as a mark of gratitude. The celebration concluded with a vote of thanks and the rendition of the School Anthem, leaving behind an atmosphere of pride, unity and heartfelt appreciation for the guiding lights of every family - the grandparents.
