DRS International School, celebrated the nation’s 69th Republic Day with a difference. To observe the day that our constitution was formally adopted, the school community creatively took up the day as an opportunity to adopt ‘personal constitutions’ for themselves.
The impressive flag-hoisting ceremony was followed by patriotic songs, a ‘tri-colour’ dance performance as well a unique tableau that showcased the journey of India as a nation and its hard-won struggle for independence through an exciting combination of contemporary dance and mime. The tableau was a tribute to the spirit of our freedom fighters and their beautiful legacy.
The school also marked the day by honouring its employees who had completed 5 years and 10 years of service successfully with mementos and cash awards. Particularly noteworthy was the school’s move to recognize and felicitate members of the support staff. Sports coaches were also felicitated for the role they played in bringing laurels to the school.
The day also saw the announcement of the final tallies for Inter-House competitions held in the cultural, sports and literary categories. Newton House stole the limelight by emerging the Overall Winner for the academic year 2017-18 while Da Vinci House emerged the Runners-up. The awards ceremony was a fitting end to the year’s fiercely competitive Inter-House events.
