UNITED NATIONS DAY CELEBRATIONS

United Nations Day commemorates the formation of a new era in history – an era where equality, peace and cooperation are valued above war. The day marks the anniversary of the day when the UN Charter came into force in 1945.

The UN Day Programme was organised in our School on 23^rd October 2021, via Google meet; it was live-streamed in School’s YouTube.

The Masters of the Ceremony Lakshanya and Kavyashree of IX-E joyously commenced the day after seeking the blessings of the Almighty through the Gayatri Mantra, recited by Prajna S of IX-A. The gathering was welcomed and a brief introduction about the United Nations was given by Vasundara P of IX -C.
