Independence Day Event at The Poly Kids School

Independence Day is a very important day for our country. It reminds us of the time when India became free and independent. On this day, we remember the people who worked hard and gave their lives so that we can live in a free country. Every year, The Poly Kids organizes a celebration to mark this day and to share its meaning with our students. This year’s Independence Day Celebration at The Poly Kids was full of energy, respect, learning, and joy.

The celebration brought together students, teachers, staff, and parents to spend time together and enjoy the activities. It was not just a program but a day to understand why this date is so special for all Indians.

A Bright and Cheerful Start to the Day

The school came alive early in the morning. The decorations were done with care, using tricolor balloons, paper flowers, and handmade flags made by the children during art activities. The entrance had a welcome board with “Happy Independence Day” written on it in bright colors.

Teachers and staff were dressed in clothes matching the colors of the Indian flag. Parents who joined us also followed the same theme. The children looked very happy and excited, moving around with their small paper flags in hand. The sound of cheerful music and songs related to freedom added to the warm feeling all around.

Flag Hoisting by Our Chairman

The most important part of the event was the flag hoisting ceremony. Our respected Chairman, Mr. Mukul Mahendru, was invited to hoist the national flag. As the flag went up, everyone stood in attention. We all sang the National Anthem together, and the voices of children and adults joined in one tune.

The flag moved gently in the breeze, and it was a proud moment for everyone. Some children waved their flags with excitement, while others looked up at the big flag with curiosity and admiration.

Speech by the Chairman

After the flag hoisting, Mr. Mukul Mahendru addressed the gathering with a heartfelt speech. He spoke in simple words so that even the youngest children could understand.

He explained why we celebrate Independence Day and reminded everyone about the efforts of our freedom fighters. He encouraged students to always be honest, helpful, and responsible. He also said that even small actions like helping friends, keeping our surroundings clean, and respecting elders make a big difference in improving our country.

His speech was inspiring for the adults as well. Many parents nodded in agreement, and the staff appreciated his message about working together for a better future.

Words from Other Members

After the Chairman’s speech, the stage was open for others to share their thoughts. Teachers came forward to speak about the history of Independence Day in short and simple ways. Some shared stories about famous leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, and Subhas Chandra Bose.

Parents also took the opportunity to speak. One parent shared how they celebrate Independence Day at home with their children, while another talked about teaching kids to respect their country by following rules and being kind to everyone.

Hearing from different people made the program richer and more interesting. It showed that the meaning of this day is important for all generations.

Cultural Activities and Performances

To make the celebration even more engaging for the children, we included short cultural activities. Some children sang songs they had practiced with their teachers. Others recited poems that expressed love for the country.

A group of students performed a small skit about unity and working together. Even though the skit was simple, the message was clear: when we help each other, we make our community stronger. Parents and staff clapped warmly after every performance, encouraging the children for their efforts.

Sweet Ladoo for Everyone

After the speeches and performances, it was time to share something sweet. Ladoo was given to everyone present—students, parents, staff, and guests. The children were especially happy to receive the ladoo. Some even kept it carefully to take home and share with their family.

Sharing sweets is a tradition that adds warmth to the celebration. It shows that happiness grows when we share it with others.

Why We Celebrate Independence Day in School

At The Poly Kids, we believe that celebrating Independence Day in school is important for our students. It helps them:

• Learn about the history of our country in a fun way.

• Understand why freedom is valuable.

• Respect the hard work and sacrifices of those who made it possible.

• Feel proud to be part of India.

These lessons are not always easy to teach in a classroom. Events like the Independence Day Celebration at The Poly Kids give children real-life experiences that they will remember for years.

Building Good Values Through Celebration

Celebrations like these are not just about decorations and sweets. They are a way to teach children good values. They learn teamwork while preparing for performances. They practice discipline during the flag hoisting. They understand respect when they listen to speeches.

Even the act of standing together and singing the National Anthem builds a sense of unity among them. This is why we make sure every student takes part in some way, whether it’s singing, speaking, or helping in arrangements.

Reflections from the Staff and Parents

After the program, many staff members shared their thoughts. They felt that this year’s celebration was very well organized and that it created a positive atmosphere in the school. Teachers were happy to see the children participate actively and show interest in the activities.

Parents also appreciated the effort. They said such celebrations teach children lessons that books cannot always explain. They were glad to see their children learning respect, teamwork, and the importance of the day in such a joyful way.

Memories for the Students

For the children, the Independence Day Celebration at The Poly Kids was more than just an event—it was a memory. They will remember standing under the flag, listening to the speeches, performing on stage, and enjoying ladoo with their friends.

These small but meaningful moments help shape their understanding of the world. Even the youngest students, who may not fully understand the history yet, take away the feeling that this day is special and worth celebrating.

Conclusion

The Independence Day Celebration at The Poly Kids this year was a day filled with learning, joy, and togetherness. From the flag hoisting by Mr. Mukul Mahendru to the inspiring speeches, cultural performances, and ladoo distribution, every part of the event was memorable.

This celebration reminded us that freedom is a gift, and it is our duty to protect and respect it. As everyone left the school with happy hearts, they carried with them a message of unity and hope for the future.

At The Poly Kids, we will continue to celebrate such days, not only to remember the past but also to inspire our children to be good citizens who care for their school, community, and country.
