To honour the cherished role of grandparents in every individual's life, Sarala Birla Public School, Ranchi organised a heartwarming event - Vatsalyam 2024 by students of KG II on the theme 'Pravahini- The river saga’. The event witnessed the presence of special guests from Apna Ghar, an old age home. Their presence made the day more memorable. The annual report of session 2023-24 was presented by the Vice Head Boy of the school.

The event included various programmes by the tiny tots which depicted the various stages of a river. All the stages were connected with the stages of human life.  The stages portrayed how life originates, moving on to describing the joyful saga of childhood and just like a human being reaches maturity similarly a river also becomes calm and finally it reaches its ultimate destination. A special performance by the students to celebrate Raksha Bandhan was dedicated to the sacrifices made by the frontline warriors.

The performance was to honour the Indian soldiers listing the insights of the kargil conflict and the deeds of bravery of the other unsung heroes. A plantation drive was also organised for the parents and students who were present on the auspicious occasion to promote the importance of conservation of our nature. The tiny tots also tied rakhis around the trees with a pledge to protect them. The event culminated with the rendition of school song followed by the National Anthem.

School Principal, Paramjit Kaur, expressed her gratitude for the grandparents' and spoke about their invaluable influence on the present generation. She added that such events create lasting memories and strengthen family connections within the school community.
