Independence Day was celebrated at the school. The programme began with a solemn tribute to the soldiers who laid down their lives for the nation’s freedom. The school band welcomed chief guest Assistant Parish Priest, Chandigarh Shimla Diocese, Father Powlish and other dignitaries, including Sr Principal Sr Jesina, Vice-Principal Sr Lismi, Sr Fidelia, Sr Sherly, and others. The students presented a series of plays and acts that brought alive the sacrifices of freedom fighters Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, and Sukhdev. Another act remembered the bravery of Rani Lakshmi Bai. The celebration ended with a bhangra performance. Father Powlish, in his address, emphasised the importance of freedom, unity, and responsibility.

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).
