Celebration of ‘Veer Bal Diwas’

‘Veer Bal Diwas’ which is commemorated every year on 26th December, is dedicated to honouring children as the foundation of India's future. Week long activities & competitions on the theme ‘Veerta’ were conducted at CRPF Public School, Rohini which aimed to foster a spirit of creativity, patriotism and historical consciousness among students, inspiring them to contribute to the vision of a ‘Viksit Bharat’. These activities provided a platform for students to express their thoughts and feelings while learning about the significance of Veer Bal Diwas. Students at Foundational stage and Preparatory stage enthusiastically participated in painting competition, storytelling and essay writing on topics- ‘My Dream for India’ expressing their thoughts on how they envision India & 'What makes me happy ', which allowed children to reflect on their personal sources of joy. From family gatherings to outdoor play, students illustrated moments of happiness tied to their cultural heritage, emphasizing the importance of community in their lives. Students of middle and secondary school classes actively took part in competitions -writing essays, composing poems, debate and storytelling on topics ' Role of children in nation building ' and ' My vision for Viksit Bharat '. They were also engaged in making digital presentations. Teachers shared inspirational stories of PMRBP awardees with the students to help them develop essential life skills, values and principles that will shape their future and inspire them to become compassionate, responsible and successful individuals. They were encouraged to participate in an online quiz as well. Students taking online classes, took part in special assembly which began with an introduction to the significance of Veer Bal Diwas highlighting the valour of the Guru's sons -- Zorawar Singh and Fateh Singh -- who embodied principles of bravery and righteousness. Teachers shared stories of their courage and sacrifice, inspiring students to emulate these virtues in their lives. Various online competitions & activities were held- poster making, creative writing, cultural activities and storytelling sessions. In a heartfelt display of unity, children participated in singing patriotic songs and dancing to their tunes that stirred emotions and fostered a sense of national pride. We extend our gratitude to Principal ma’am, Ms Nidhi Chaudhary for providing platform to students to engage in plethora of activities, both in offline and online mode. These almost week-long celebrations were not only a tribute to the legacy but also an opportunity for students to engage in creative expressions and learn about the values of patriotism and resilience.
