Keeping the festive spirit alive at NPS Whitefield, Dussehra was celebrated on Thursday, September 26th 2019 by the students and staff. Ram Leela was staged by the students in which they presented the scenes of the banishment of Lord Rama from Ayodhaya followed by his victory over Ravana. The primary objective of the entire show was to convince the students that no matter how intelligent a person is, his pride will be the reason for his fall. They learnt how Ravana’s single mistake overpowered his entire wisdom. The message of ’the triumph of virtue over the vice’ was well conveyed through the play. Pre Primary, Primary students and staff were invited to be a part of the celebration where they encouraged our passionate and confident performers. The auspicious occasion inspires not only to be truthful, but also fight for justice for the weak, and destroy seeds of malice.

The week saw students of Pre-primary and the faculty of the school, display their favourite toy or a traditional doll in the doll exhibition. Golu is the festive display of dolls and figurines in South India during the autumn festive season, particularly around the multiday Navaratri Dussehra, festival. Golu also has a significant connection with the agricultural and handicrafts professions in India. It was a collaborative activity of the staff and students and the exhibits from different parts of our country displayed the varied art and creativity of our Nation. Truly speaking it was a visual treat to all.
