The Zeal of Independence at Carmel Convent Mannat Sibal
Patriotism is in the air and with the same spirit Carmel Convent celebrates the 62nd Independence Day.
The festivities were marked with the flag hoisting ceremony by the chief guest, Father Stephan Fernandis. A parade was performed by the students of class 9 accompanied by the newly formed Carmel Band which was breath taking. Their synchronization was so astounding that it left the viewers with a deep sense of belonging towards our Nation. The students of class 8th later presented a tableau high lighting the mile stones on the road of independence of India in the fields of Agriculture, Technology and Sports. The show came to an end with a tribute to our “Kargil Heroes”and the “Mumbai Terror Attack Victims” Seeing such enthusiasm in the students Father Stephan Fernandis remarked, “Everyone has a right of freedom and today I could see it in the play which the students portrayed. The way they had shown how India developed or rather changed during these 62 years was just mesmerizing!”.
“The play was excellent and the presentation was absolutely fabulous!”, said a few sisters and teachers.
Every student now swells and says with pride, “I AM PROUD TO BE AN INDIAN.. JAI HIND!”
