The thrilling adventure programmes and scintillating cultural items were eye catching and made everyone spellbound. The uniqueness about the programme was that each and every child participated in it.

Veda chanting by the Kindergarteners, the flower dance, the Bhangra and the dumbbells dance enthralled the audience. The skit, emphasizing the need to exercise control over thought, word, deed and character was value – based and was appreciated by one and all.

The mind boggling and gripping adventure events such as the pyramids, cycling, yogasanas, skating, karate, silambam, gymnastics, trampaulin and kattas were awe inspiring.

The mighty pyramid stunt formations of lotus and chariot along with the yogasanas depicted the excellent mastery of mind over body. The amazing feats on roller – skaters and cycles exhibited team spirit and the dedicated and concerted efforts of the students.

The most daring event of all was the jumping through the ring of blazing fire. Watching the feats with ropes and wheels of fire, the audiences were on pins and needles.

The spectacular show put up by the children, trained by experts in the respective field, with care, concern, dedication and devotion proved how, given the opportunity, the latent talents of the children could be brought to limelight and how their potential, energies could be channelised in the right track, so as to make them the worthy citizens of a worthy nation.
