CHRISTMAS… it’s about the CROSS

It’s not just about the manger where the baby laid
It’s not all about the angels who sang for Him that day
It’s not just about the shepherds or the bright and shining star
It’s not all about the wise men who travelled from afar.
It’s about the Cross, it’s about my sin
It’s about how Jesus came to be born
So that we could be born again
It’s about the stone that was rolled away
So that you and I could have real life someday
It’s about the Cross.

THE BEGINNING OF THE STORY IS WONDERFUL AND GREAT
BUT IT’S THE ENDING THAT CAN SAVE YOU AND THAT’S WHY WE CELEBRATE!!

The students of Divine Child High School were enlightened today, with the true meaning of Christmas at the Christmas Tableau… that ‘Christmas’ is all about the ‘Cross’.
As the school closes for the Christmas holidays, we, the Divine family wish for you and your families, a Christ-filled season of Christmas and a happy, prosperous and healthy New Year.

MARATHI ELOCUTION

Marathi Elocution competition was held online through Google meet on 21st August 2020 for class 8th, 9th and 10th students. Every participant was given precisely 3 minute for the speech on selected topic. It was indeed astounding to see how beautifully students had put their thoughts, insights, humour and delivered the speech.

Students were very confident and spoke really well. Some topics were pretty easy/straightforward whereas a few topics were challenging. The competition was concluded with a few words of encouragement by the judges Tr. Amal and Tr. Tina.

TRANSGENDER DAY OF REMEMBRANCE

The 10th of December saw a new and refreshing venture for the Divine family. For the first time ever, we opened our portals to a section of people who are often looked upon differently and not too well accepted in society – the Transgenders.

Our special guests were welcomed with floral tribute and the programme organized for them began with the lighting of the traditional lamp and a prayer service. The carol singing, spot prizes and dance performances by our students brightened their day. Our guests shared with us their experiences of life and also appreciated our gesture of inviting them to our school.      They made visits to the classrooms to meet all students and interact with them. They were felicitated with gifts at the close of the programme.

ESSAY WRITING COMPETITION

An English essay writing competition was held online through Google meet for the students of STD IX and X. The students were asked to write on a particular topic, click a picture of it and send it to the teacher. The essay was judged on the basis of the student’s vocabulary, presentation and creativity.

The purpose of the competition was to encourage the students to enhance their thinking and writing skills. The essays were well written by the students.
