The spirit of festivity and joy filled the air as our Greenwood High school celebrated the vibrant festival of lights — Diwali — with devotion, enthusiasm and cultural splendour. The celebration commenced with a serene and spiritual atmosphere as our tiny Greenhoodies chanted Shlokas, invoking divine blessings of wisdom, prosperity and knowledge.
The ceremonial Deeparadhana was performed by our respected Principal, Mrs. Manjula Devi, Vice Principal, Mr. Srikanth, and ACO, Mrs. Rajeshwari, before the idol of Maa Lakshmi, spreading an aura of spirituality and positivity throughout the campus.
The cultural program was a wonderful blend of tradition and festivity. The primary students enthralled everyone with their classical dance performances, presenting Ganesh Stuti, Lakshmi Ashtakam and a vibrant Diwali celebration song that filled the atmosphere with joy and festive spirit. Students also delivered informative and thoughtful speeches on various themes — from the significance of Diwali and the rituals followed, to the special delicacies prepared during the festival and the importance of celebrating a safe and eco-friendly Diwali.
Our respected Principal, Mrs. Manjula Devi, addressed the gathering and motivated the students to celebrate Diwali safely and responsibly. She also explained the true essence and reason behind the celebration of Diwali, emphasizing the victory of good over evil and light over darkness, inspiring students to follow the path of truth, kindness and positivity.
The celebration beautifully reflected the spirit of Diwali and the values our school upholds. Heartfelt thanks to the management for organizing such a vibrant and meaningful event that enlightened young minds and filled hearts with festive warmth.
