CHRISTMAS “We all sang carols and encouraged
CELEBRATIONS
“Christmas is most truly Christmas when we
celebrate it by giving the light of love to
those who need it most.”
- Ruth Carter Stapleton
In an endeavour to imbibe the spirit of secularism, to
foster a culture of sensitivity and respect for all, the
school celebrates every festival with equal fervour and
gusto. The much awaited festival of Christmas was
celebrated in its true spirit on 23 December, 2019. The
rd
message of the assembly was loud and clear-
Celebrate Christmas by touching the lives of the less
fortunate and experience the joy of giving, sharing
and caring. As the spirit of Christmas is in every shared
joy and every act of kindness, the school organised a
Toy Donation Drive. This wonderful initiative saw an
enthusiastic response from Pacificans who donated
generously towards this noble cause.
“Christmas time is a happy time…we had lots of fun.”

everyone to join us. The assembly made
me realise the true meaning of Christmas
i.e; to enjoy and cherish all the moments
in our lives and count our blessings.”

“We all participated in the 'Joy of Giving'
activity. It was a toy collection drive
initiated by our school. On Christmas Eve,
our school bus came to our society to
collect the old toys. Then we went to gift
these toys to the underprivileged children
in the nearby slums. This activity invoked
in me a feeling of empathy and sensitivity
towards the less fortunate in the society.”

“The sound of carols filled the air with
positive vibes. Bells, stars, streamers and
angels adorned the auditorium. The
beautifully decked up Christmas tree
created an atmosphere of festivity. We all
prayed for love and peace to prevail in Toy Donation Drive- All For That Smile
this violent-torn world. We presented a
beautiful programme. It included dance,
carol singing, and distribution of toffees
by Santa, acted by one of our friends.”

“I gave wings to my imagination when I
made a snowman out of cotton for the
Intra-Class Christmas Craft Competition
organised by my school. The class party
was awesome and I really enjoyed
singing carols and sharing my food with
my friends.”
