“The aim of Rhapsody is to unite students of various schools and foster friendship among them,” Father Sebestian, principal of loyola School said.
The Jyoti unit of every school in the city undertakes some social work. Be it planting saplings, visit to the orphanage or the old age home and provide them whatever the beneficiaries are in need of. Rhapsody is one of the events which involves students from various schools on a single platform to share and showcase their talent beyond academics.
