Model Exhibition on 28th March 2011
India is a land of festivals. Each culture and region of
India celebrates its own festivals with great zeal and enthusiasm.
Recently Omkarananda Preparatory School celebrated some of these
festivals together in the form of a Model Exhibition. Some of the most
important festivals were selected for this activity. These included the
Durga Puja from Bengal, Raj Joat Yatra from Garhwal, Chatth Puja from
Bihar, Guruparb from Punjab, Ganesh Chaturthi from Maharashtra and
Id-ul-Fitr from Islam. All these festivals were represented through
various models. The kids constructed their models using waste material,
thermocole, plaster of Paris, wooden powder, sand, stones, clothes and
sticks etc. They themselves were beautifully attired in their cultural
and regional costumes demonstrating the customs and the objects in their
models. Happy faces of the parents and the gleaming eyes of the visitors
undoubtedly rewarded the kids for their labor in the form of
appreciation.
