Children's Day Celebration 2018
Arnav Kumar • November 16, 2018
Children's Day is unique for its honoring of the children throughout the world. Several countries have adopted different dates for observing the International Children's Day. In India, the day commemorates the birth anniversary of the first Prime Minister of Independent India, Jawaharlal Nehru. Observed every year on November 14, the day is exciting in every school-going child. Sandesham celebrated it on the 16th with full enthusiasm with multiple sports activities, prizes and refreshments, after all it is all about cherishing our kids & having fun.
Salma and Anamika delivered the speech on Children's Day to all. This was followed by the sports activities which included lemon-spoon and shoe-socks races. Lemon and spoon race is a sporting event in which children had to balance a lemon upon a spoon and race with it to the finishing line. Children developed their concentration level and patience through this activity. Similarly in the shoe and socks race children had to run and quickly wear their shoe and socks and run back to the finishing line.
Prize distribution for the race as well as the Diya competition was held followed by refreshments. It was a happy and cheerful day made possible by our wonderful volunteers and refreshment sponsors.
