Synchronization of the LKG and UKG students left everyone spellbound as they turned and twirled during Gujarat Garba Raas. The audience clapped and cheered as kindergartners put up an adorable performance all of the all time favourite Charlie Chaplin.

Students of Class 1 to 4 took one and all along with them on an adventurous voyage as they recreated the tale of Gulliver and the Lilliputians. Varying genres were seen on stage as a Michael Jackson inspired bunch of Class 1 and 2 kids put up a lively Hip-Hop act while the students of Class 5 enthralled the audience with their sufi inspired peep into the rich Mughal period of Indian history. The Robotic dance of Class 5 recharged everyone with its vivacity.

The yoga act of the students of Classes 5 to 8 created a magical world of endurance, strength, balance and stamina and the same was exhibited in an entirely desi avatar of Punjabi Bhangra by the students of Class 9 and 10.  East met West when a classical form of dance- Kathak was presented with a contemporary twist by the students of Class 9. LED Dance by the children of Class 8 was another major attraction. The School Administrator, Sushma Gupta delivered a vote of thanks.
