A special assembly on Dussehra was organized by the students of primary wing .The assembly started by seeking the blessings of Almighty. The students presented a speech highlighting the importance of the festival. A beautiful poem with the message to spread happiness around was recited followed by choreography on Dusshera. The students also took a pledge to work over their weaknesses and build strength instead. Take away craft was made by the children of Early years. They were also shown a video as to how the exuberant and vibrant festivities of Dussehra are marked in many different ways across the country based on regional and cultural legends attached with it.
A huge ten headed effigy of Ravana was made collectively by the teachers and students. The most awaited moment came when the children witnessed the effigy monstrous Ravana – symbol of all evil- slowly being consumed by fire.
