PONGAL CELEBRATION

        Kavi Bharathi Vidyalaya celebrated Pongal on January 13, 2023. Our board members Mr. Suresh Karthikeyan, Mr. Puvanendran, Ms. Renuka Devi, Ms. Krishna Devi, Ms. Mala Thangaraj, and Ms. Kokila graced the occasion. Smartly dressed in colorful ethnic wear, students performed many enthralling songs, dances, and quiz programs. The intricately drawn designs of special Kolam filled the school grounds manifesting a rich treat to the beholder’s eyes.  The mouth-watering ‘Chakkara Pongal’ cooked in a beautifully painted pot by our staff was offered to the divine in all plausible sanctity and later distributed to the  Students, Teachers, and Support Staff. The entire campus wore a festive look with colorful Rangoli, decorated Pongal pots, sugarcanes, and other decorations enhancing the festival spirit.
       The celebration began with a Prayer, followed by our board member Ms. Renuka Devi’s message, which reminded the children about the importance of the harvest festival.  The Highlight of the day was the Vaadi Vaasal event for the children followed by breaking the pot. The entire celebration was captured by Vasanth Channel and telecasted on the same day. Through this celebration, our students remembered the splendor of mother Earth, the role of Sun sustaining life, the importance to pay gratitude to the farm animals, the farmer who has toiled all his life, and most importantly the heritage of togetherness.
