Our deepest gratitude to Shija Eye Care Foundation, a unit of Shija Hospitals and Research Institute for conducting a Free Eye Check Up Camp at the School premises on the 9th of Nov, 2023. The camp was a significant step in creating awareness about eye-care and ensuring the well-being of our students, their families and our staff.

A few moments of light-heartedness which the students really needed. They were asked to come to school wearing their favourite casual wear. They enjoyed the day every bit, and had tons of fun. It was a much-needed respite from the rigours of daily schoolwork.

❤️Eid Mubarak to all❤️
❤️Eid al-Fitr, 'Holiday of Breaking the Fast', is the earlier of the two official holidays celebrated within Islam (the other being Eid al-Adha). The religious holiday is celebrated by Muslims worldwide because it marks the end of the month-long dawn-to-sunset fasting of Ramadan. It falls on the first day of Shawwal in the Islamic calendar; this does not always fall on the same Gregorian day, as the start of any lunar Hijri month varies based on when the new moon is sighted by local religious authorities. The holiday is known under various other names in different languages and countries around the world. The day is also called Lesser Eid, or simply Eid.

🌍🏛️🌺 Happy World Heritage Day everyone! 🌺🏛️🌍

Today, on April 18th, we celebrate International Day for Monuments and Sites! Let's raise awareness about the importance of protecting cultural heritage and celebrate the diversity of the world's heritage! 💪🌟

Did you know that the idea of celebrating World Heritage Day was proposed by the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) in 1982? It was later approved by the United Nations General Assembly in 1983. The date, April 18th, was chosen to commemorate the day when the Convention Concerning the Protection of World Cultural and Natural Heritage was adopted by UNESCO in 1982. 🤓👍

Let's appreciate and protect our world's cultural heritage! 🙌🏼🌎

Cheiraoba is considered one of the most important festivals of Manipur. It is celebrated with great pomp and joy, especially, by the Meiteis of the state. Usually celebrated in the month of April, it marks the beginning of the lunar new year for the Meiteis residing in Manipur and elsewhere.

While the followers of Sanamahism, Meitei’s indigenous religion, celebrate it on the first day of the lunar new year, the followers of Vaishnav Hindus, celebrate it on the 13th or 14th of April every year according to the solar Hindu calendar.

On this day, the Meiteis clean their houses and deck up by wearing their fine traditional attires to mark the occasion. Traditional cuisines such as eromba, pakora, ooti, and many more are prepared and offered to the local deity along with colorful flowers and incense sticks in front of the gates. The dishes are also exchanged with the neighbors.

After devouring the sumptuous meal, people visit the nearest hillocks for merriment in the afternoon. This is significant considering the amount of food consumed, it is pertinent for the digestion of the food partaken. Also, it is believed that by climbing the hilltop to worship the deity on this new year of the Meiteis, people are blessed with prosperity and will also achieve greater heights in life.

On Cheiraoba, married daughters, sisters and aunts visit their paternal homes with gifts for the male members of the family. This custom is an act of repaying the gifts received by them on the day of Ningol Chakouba.

At night, Thabal Chongba, the Manipuri folk dance, is organized by the locals across Manipur valley as a joyous event for ushering in the much-awaited Meitei new year.
