Grandparents’ Day at GD Goenka Public School Lucknow – A Day Dedicated to the Love of Grandparents:
Grandparents are the bridge that connects generations, guiding the way forward with their wisdom and love. They are the family’s heart, a beautiful blend of laughter, treasured memories, and timeless stories. Through every moment of joy and sorrow, grandparents hold families together with their enduring love, care, and affection, keeping us all close to one another. GD Goenka Public School organised a delightful celebration for grandparents to honour this special bond on October 24, 2024. It was a day dedicated to honouring the unwavering love, wisdom, and guidance that grandparents provide to their families.
The event commenced with the sacred lighting of the lamp by our honourable Chief Guest, Mr Mahesh Gupta (IAS), Chairman Mr Sarvesh Goel, Director Ms Lalita Goel, and Principal Dr Prerna Mitra, followed by eloquent speeches, setting the stage for a day of celebration and joy.
Students of Grade 1 warmly welcomed the esteemed grandparents with a breath-taking Vandana performance, followed by a heartfelt welcome song dedicated to the grandparents. Students from Nursery to UKG then took the stage, expressing their boundless love for their grandparents through a captivating performance and endearing Nukkad Naatak. The students of Grades 1 and 2 CBSE and Cambridge further elevated the atmosphere with their harmonious singing, grooving to retro beats, and showcasing their immense talents through an array of dynamic performances. Their energy and enthusiasm were palpable, leaving the audience spellbound.
Creativity took centre stage as students from Nursery to Grade 2 displayed a stunning collection of innovative crafts, including decorative lanterns, diyas, vibrant rangolis, colourful hangings, exquisitely decorated matkis, etc., to mark the upcoming festival of Diwali.
