Students of the school immersed themselves in the vibrant spirit of Lohri, celebrating the traditional Punjabi harvest festival with great zeal. The highlight of the celebration was the lighting of the bonfire, symbolising the burning of evil and negativity. All students and staff gathered around the fire, offering prayers and singing traditional Lohri songs. To mark the occasion, students were treated to traditional Lohri sweets, such as gachak, til ke laddu and popcorn.

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).
