Pongal Celebration 2022-23

Pongal, a significant festival in Hindu culture, is celebrated as a thanksgiving occasion for various Hindu deities. It holds a special place in the hearts of the farming community as it marks the culmination of the harvest season. 

The festivities commence with 'Bhogi,' which acts as a prelude to the subsequent celebrations. 'Bhogi' is dedicated to Lord Indra, the God of Heavens, serving as a gratitude-filled observance.

The following day is known as 'Pongal,' dedicated to paying respects to 'Surya,' the Sun God. It symbolizes new beginnings and fills people's hearts with joyous celebrations. Additionally, the third day of the Pongal festival, known as 'Maattu Pongal,' honors the cattle, which are regarded as the farmer's invaluable companions. Finally, 'Kaanum Pongal' marks the conclusion of the four-day festivities.

At our school, the Pongal celebrations were held on 7th January 2023, designed to tap into and showcase the innermost talents of our students. We celebrated the Pongal festival in a splendid manner, capturing the essence of our rich culture and traditions.

The festivities commenced with the traditional Pongal song, creating a joyful and vibrant atmosphere. The students actively participated in a drama competition, leaving a lasting impact  to the Pongal celebrations. Their exceptional emotional abilities and acting skills reflected our true traditions and culture.

The Pongal festival celebration at our school serves as a true manifestation of our rich cultural heritage. It showcases our vibrant traditions at their best, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts and minds of all participants.
