Be a cause of someone’s happiness.” The students of our school gave a gift of kindness on 25 January 2024 by donating warm jackets at Bengali Camp, Meera Bagh to help the underprivileged on the occasion of Republic Day.

The few students of Class IX under the supervision of teachers distributed the jackets to the needy. The students learnt not to hoard clothes that either don’t fit them anymore or they have just stopped wearing. When they are in a good condition, they can help many who do not have access to enough clothes. The students rejoiced by helping the deprived fight cruel chilly weather and stay snuggly covered. |
