Celebrating Literature: Finale of Diwali Camp at GK Marg School

The finale of the Diwali Camp at Bhavishya Yaan’s GK Marg School concluded with a successful and enriching Literature Festival, where students shared their learning about the works of Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore. The students spoke with great enthusiasm about Tagore’s personality and his famous stories, including Kabuliwala and When Wishes Come True.

The event was graced by Girish Sir, who was invited as a guest to observe the performances, and his presence added to the excitement. The first performance of the day was by the students of Std 6, who presented a dance performance to the original Bengali version of Bharat Bhagya Vidhata. This was followed by students from Standards 6 and 8, who sang the deep and meaningful song Ekla Chalo Re in a trilingual form, beautifully presenting Gurudev’s literary masterpiece.

Next, the students of Std 5 took the stage with a mesmerising dance performance to the same song, Ekla Chalo Re, which left the audience in awe. The highlight of the day was a skit based on the Kabuliwala story, in which the students delivered the dialogues and expressions of the story’s characters with remarkable skill.

To end the event, the students enjoyed a recitation of the amusing poem Sunday by Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore, bringing a sense of light-hearted joy to the occasion. The Literature Festival concluded with a prize distribution ceremony, recognising students who had shown exceptional effort in learning and performing throughout the Diwali Camp.

The event was rounded off with delicious snacks, leaving everyone with fond memories of a successful and meaningful celebration of literature.
