Description :
“Let us take some time to value our nation and never forget the sacrifices.”
The first rays of the sun that illuminated the world on 15th August 2021, revitalised the citizens of India with a new promise and a new vigour. The HDFC School, Bengaluru, joined the nation as it celebrated the 75th Independence Day. As the tricolour was hoisted in the school ground by Principal, Ms. Parvathy Seshadri, students along with their parents and staff members displayed their respect to the nation by proudly saluting the flag virtually. Principal, addressed the gathering by congratulating all students and staff for enthusiastically uniting to celebrate and honour the nation despite the current tough and troubling times. This was followed by a virtual celebration for parents, teachers and students on the Teams platform. The constraints of the times, could not limit our spirited students from joyously celebrating the day from the safety of their homes. Students brought in patriotic flavour with their meaningful speeches, well-choreographed dances, lilting songs. These trying times did not dampen the spirit of pride and patriotism in the students as they participated in these events with great zeal and enthusiasm.
It was not just paying homage to the heroes of our freedom struggle but also driving home the point that one has to value the liberty one enjoys, by being a responsible citizen of this great nation.
