Diwali celebration with a difference








   87 students of Velammal NewGen School,  Medavakkam were on the streets, alleys and apartments around the school propagating the message “Have a green Diwali which is cracker free and smoke free”. The school had a special assembly program yesterday on how to celebrate Diwali without fire crackers and today 3rd November 2018, all the students of grades 6 to 8 prepared Diwali Greetings with a message and spoke to the people in the neighborhood and broadcasted the worthy message. A group of enthusiastic students did a street play on having an ecofriendly Diwali in ‘Shirdi shelters’ and ‘Isha Yara’ housing communities, which was very much appreciated by the parents. The value “sustainable development” was instilled in the minds of the students.
