Olive Shoots Academy, Bangalore

Dear Parents,

To mark Children’s Day, our children expressed their creativity by painting personalized piggy-bank pots. We are grateful for your assistance in helping them with the painting. Your involvement is deeply appreciated.

The pots have been sent home accompanied by a few coins as part of our Save & Share Program, an initiative designed to encourage children to develop a habit of saving and giving to those in need.

Through this activity, we aim to nurture two vital values in our children:

1. The value of saving money, and
2. The importance of generosity and kindness towards others.

By instilling these values at a young age, we hope to shape responsible and compassionate individuals. We kindly request your support in encouraging your child to participate in this initiative and cultivate the habit of saving and sharing.

We had such a joyful time celebrating Independence Day at OSA, and our children truly made the day special! 🇮🇳✨

The morning began with some exciting Independence Day games, followed by the proud moment of flag hoisting and singing our National Anthem together. Our little ones then lit up the stage with their wonderful dances to Vande Mataram and other patriotic songs—it was a sight that filled every heart with pride and happiness. 💃🎶

After the performances, the children enjoyed a tasty treat of Kesari and colourful button idlis. The biggest highlight was when they came together to create a bright and beautiful Indian flag with its theme colours—a perfect way to end the celebration. 🟧⬜🟩

It was truly a day full of laughter, smiles, and love for our nation.
