It was a day full of joy,
fun, enjoyment and revelry as the Shemrock Group of
Schools, one of the country's leading chain of
preparatory school having 95 branches across India
celebrated Holi- a festival of colours & love, with
great enthusiasm. The toddlers and their teachers
participated in the festival with full zest and
fervour.
The children sang the Holi Rhyme (DUM DUM DUM, Holi
Has Come..) with excitement throughout the colour
week (different colors on different days).The
excitement was palpable and was evident in all the
students as they were really enthusiastic about the
celebration.
Children came to school all dressed up in white.
They played Holi with their peers. All the kids
played with dry non-toxic skin friendly colour (Gulal).
Children hugged each other, and put gulal on each
other's face saying 'Holi Mubarak!' Special care was
given to kids who are not so fond of colors. The air
reverberated with Holi songs. They were treated with
delicacies specially prepared for the day - Gujia.
The kids were really excited while playing Holi as
it could be seen in their face and by their moves.
"At the end of the day, children had so much fun
smearing colours on each other that we could
recognize them!" remarked one teacher at Shemrock.
At the end the Director and Founder of Shemrock
Group Dr. Bimla Arora gave an eco friendly message
to all Shemrockites to play Holi with dry colors
only & hug each other and not to throw balloons on
passerby. She also explained the kids about the
significance of Holi and the importance of colours
in one's life.
