October celebrates both festivals of Dussehra and Diwali. We have been narrating the story of the Ramayana to the children for the last ten days. We will soon complete the final part of the story which they have learnt to narrate to each other using hand puppets. They have chosen their favourite characters which the teachers have made for them. Craftwork includes making of crowns and garlands which were part of the stories narrated.

The school will be closed from 5th to 8th October and Delhi will witness the Ram Lila.
