Sunlight School Celebrates 80th Independence Day with Student-Led Patriotic Programme

Students of Classes 5 to 8 presented patriotic songs, while Harshita Sonawane of Class 4 and Radhya Hirpara of Class 2 delivered speeches on Independence Day. Addressing the gathering, Het Sojitra expressed gratitude to the school for nurturing his talent and providing opportunities to participate in various co-curricular activities from a young age.

Trustee Jaysukh Kathiriya said that giving students opportunities to hoist the national flag and be honoured as guests helps build confidence and enables them to recognise and showcase their abilities. He added that such recognition also brings immense pride and joy to parents.

A special highlight was that the entire programme was planned and conducted by the students, including anchoring and coordinating the flag-hoisting proceedings, reflecting the school’s emphasis on leadership, responsibility, teamwork and holistic development.

Students also decorated the campus and created a colourful rangoli based on the themes of “New India” and “Developed India,” adding to the patriotic spirit of the celebration.

The programme concluded with Principal Aditya Patel expressing gratitude to everyone who contributed to making the Independence Day celebration a success.
