The school celebrated Basant Panchami to mark the advent of the spring season. Yellow became the colour of the day as students came decked in beautiful yellow dresses. The celebration commenced by paying obeisance to Goddess Saraswati during the morning assembly. It was followed by divine rendition of ‘Saraswati vandana’ by the student choir. Later, the students made merry by flying colourful kites in the sky. They also relished yellow food items they had brought. “This auspicious festival serves as a reminder of the cyclical nature of life, where the arrival of spring brings forth new beginnings, growth and abundance. Worshipping Goddess Saraswati, embodiment of knowledge and art, inspires learning, creativity, and a fresh start,” said Principal Jaya Bhardwaj, while addressing the students.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
