The students of class 5 participated in the first assembly of the year, with a lot of
enthusiasm. It was apparent that they enjoyed the journey of getting ready for it as much as the
actual participation. They used customized background effects pertaining to the theme of happiness.
The confidence with which the students narrated a story, recited a poem was truly remarkable!
They gave a lot of food for thought, and kept us pondering when they made statements like: ‘Hope
keeps us going in difficult times’, ‘A healthy body leads to a healthy mind’ and ‘Happiness is a state
of mind and is found within’. The pictures they drew, placards they made reiterated the fact that it is
very easy to be happy and how one needs to be content, grateful and not clamour for more and
more. A dance portraying the childhood pranks of Krishna was performed by the students to show
how simple it is to attain happiness!
