GANDHI JAYANTI CELEBRATIONS AT VIDYA VIKAS ACADEMY

Peace is the most powerful weapon of mankind. It takes more courage to take a blow than to give one.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi.

The birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi is celebrated on 2nd October as a national event across India. Gandhiji, a pioneer of truth and non-violence set an example of simple living and high thinking.

This day is also observed across the entire world as the International Day of Non-violence. By celebrating the greatness of the Mahatma, we pledge to adopt his way of life and principles of empathy, humbleness, honesty and sincerity.

We celebrated the 150th birth anniversary at Vidya Vikas Academy with great zeal, enthusiasm and patriotism. A devotional ambience prevailed as the programme started with a meaningful prayer service.

Gandhiji once said, ‘’I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet”. He made cleanliness and sanitation an integral part of the Gandhian way of living. Taking up his dream of total sanitation young VVA ians took up the cause to ‘Say No To One Time Use Plastic’. Videos were shown portraying the necessity of ‘Clean and Green’ India. Teachers and student’s role is very important to create awareness among the people and inculcate a feeling of nationality.

Cleanliness is important for the protection of our environment, for our safety and a healthy future. Students took up the task of cleaning their individual classrooms and corridors, while teachers cleaned their respective Staff rooms. Poster making, slogan writing, creative writing,

rangoli designing, colouring and quiz was later on taken up in individual classes. Children realised the harmful effects of using plastic in general and pledged to reduce and refuse for a healthy future.

Keeping health and cleanliness in mind Plogging was another activity of the Gandhi Jayanti Programme. Students of class 8 along with the Principal, Vice Principal and teachers participated in the same.

As part of the cleanliness drive an international coastal beach cleanup programme was held on 21st September at Benaulim beach by the NCC Cadets, higher secondary students, Principal, Sports Director Siddharth Fal Dessai, Tr. Balika and Tr. Sonia.
