The theme of the competition was My Country. Every school generally has a fashion show where students dress up in state costumes. But, very few schools can boast of having children from such a cross section of the country. These young ones, dressed in their state costumes, showed how Aditya is a melting pot of various states and cultures. An all pervasive optimism prevailed everywhere!

Students were taught the concept of Break Fast, Lunch & Dinner. Beginning with the idea that mealtimes are pleasant and that good behaviour makes them more fun for everyone. Children were told about the importance of good manners, and were encouraged to practice table manners. They were taught basics plus a few finer points of table manners. The same is practised in school every day as consistency will help make good manners a habit for the child.
Children came dressed in ethnic clothes and made Rakhi in the school. The day was celebrated with zeal and enthusiasm. Such festivals are celebrated in school with an objective of teaching small children community living and developing family values.
Parents were requested to send children dressed up in red colour. They celebrated Friendship Day at school listening to stories based on friendship & tying friendship bands to each other which they had themselves made for their friends.
