The spirit of Kerala’s most beloved festival, Onam, came alive in our school on 13th September 2024 with a colorful and joyous celebration that brought together tradition, unity, and festivity!
The event began with the graceful Pookalam (floral rangoli) competition, where students beautifully arranged flowers into intricate patterns, filling the atmosphere with fragrance and vibrant colors. Dressed in traditional attire, students and teachers alike embraced the cultural essence of the day.
The celebration continued with energetic Thiruvathira dance performances, melodious Onam songs, and skits that narrated the story of King Mahabali and the significance of Onam. The school echoed with laughter and cheer as students participated in traditional games and fun-filled activities.
Teachers also shared the values behind the festival — unity, equality, and prosperity — helping students understand the deeper meaning of Onam beyond the celebrations. A mini “Onam Sadya” (traditional feast) display added an authentic touch, giving students a taste of Kerala’s rich culinary heritage.
The Onam celebration was not just a festival — it was a cultural journey that blended joy, learning, and tradition, leaving behind cherished memories and smiles all around.
