• To enable students to share their experiences, stories, anecdotes with others.

• To provide them training in good social behaviour desired in public life.

Baisakhi Assembly

On Friday, 11 April, 2025, GD Goenka Public School Model Town Junior organized a special assembly to celebrate the vibrant festival of Baisakhi.  The objective of conducting this assembly was to tell the students about one of the “Harvest Festivals” and to imbibe the values of “Khalsa Panth” in the lives of our young learners. The assembly was filled with enthusiasm, creativity, and learning.

The assembly commenced with the students reciting the prayer, followed by a brief introduction about Baisakhi by the students of grade KG stating the significance of the festival.

A group of children sang a song related to Baisakhi, celebrating the joy of harvest.

The students presented a lively Bhangra dance, dressed in colourful traditional attire. Their energetic performance brought smiles to everyone’s faces and showcased the rich cultural heritage of Punjab.

After the performances, the children engaged in a hands-on craft activity where they created colourful kites, a symbol of Baisakhi, and beautiful hand fans.

The special assembly on Baisakhi was a wonderful opportunity for the little ones to learn about and celebrate an important cultural festival. It fostered a sense of community, creativity, and appreciation for diverse traditions among our young learners.
