On 13th August 2025, Vatsalya International School celebrated Janmashtami with devotion and enthusiasm, organized by pre-primary department. The event was graced by the presence of Swamiji, Principal sir and Vice-Principal sir. The day began with mesmerizing dance performances by our Pre-Primary students. It was a proud moment to see the little ones—who once hesitated to come to school—now performing confidently on stage. Their dances beautifully depicted the childhood stories of Krishna, Radha, and their families, spreading messages of friendship, faith, and togetherness. The festive spirit was enriched with the traditional Dahi Handi celebration. The school campus looked vibrant, decorated with beautifully coloured peacock feather cutouts made by students and a beautifully adorned Hindola of Lord Krishna. As part of the celebration, our teachers brought alive the enchanting childhood tales of Krishna—sharing with students about his divine birth, his loving parents, and even his favourite food. This not only deepened their knowledge but also filled the day with curiosity, joy, and devotion. Swamiji’s presence added a divine touch as he inspired the students with moral values and life lessons. The event also included the prize distribution ceremony for Olympiad winners, motivating students to strive for excellence. The celebration concluded with blessings and appreciation, making Janmashtami at VIS a perfect blend of culture, education, and joy.
