The festival of Basant Panchami, which marks the end of winter and the onset of spring. This day is considered to be the birthday of Goddess Saraswati, as she is said to have appeared on earth to eradicate the sadness of all living beings, through the gift of speech. This is why Goddess Saraswati, the deity of knowledge, music, art, science and technology is worshipped on this day.
M.B.S International School commemorated this special day with great fervor on January 24, 2023. Keeping the tradition of inculcating values in today’s modern times, the school organized Pooja to venerate Goddess Saraswati and invoke her blessings. The children devotionally rendered the “Saraswati Vandana” as they implored the goddess to bestow the gift of knowledge and wisdom on them.
On this auspicious occasion all the students were dressed in yellow-colored attires and offered floral prayers. The tiny-tots of Pre-Primary unfurled the ebullience of the day by depicting their artistic skills. On the other hand, the students of Grade I and II presented their rhetoric skills by speaking few lines on the occasion of Basant Panchami. Everyone enjoyed the day, enlightened by the blessings of Goddess Saraswati.
