Celebrating Freedom and Values That Endure

This Independence Day, our students filled the campus with music, pride, and patriotism as they sang songs that celebrated the spirit of India. The highlight of the morning was the theatre performance Ali’s Favourite Biryani — a heartwarming skit that had recently won second place at an interschool competition. The young actors once again captivated their audience of parents, teachers, and peers with their moving performance and expressive storytelling.

Our Principal, Ms. Padmini, addressed the gathering with the story of a young boy who chose courage and integrity over surrender during the struggle for independence. She reminded everyone that while we may live in a fast-changing digital world, the timeless values of bravery, honesty, and resilience must continue to guide us.

Adding a special touch to the celebration, our Korean students marked their own Independence Day with a speech delivered in Korean and translated into English by a peer — a powerful gesture of unity in diversity.

The morning was a beautiful reflection of who we are as a community — rooted in values, connected across cultures, and inspired by the enduring idea of freedom.
