Relationships are the essence of human life and Raksha Bandhan is one such festival that provides an opportunity to deepen relationships, bringing families together in a bond of unwavering love. To celebrate this festival oflove, care and protection, we at Ahlcon, organized a ‘Rakhi Making Activity’ for our students of Nursery & Prep classes on Friday31st July 2020 through virtual Teams platform. On this devout occasion of 'Rakshabandhan'students not only shared the essence of the occasion  through their beautifully created Rakhis but also sang and danced too. They were briefed about the significance of the festival andthe story that narrates the reason behind the celebrations. Little Ahlconites displayed their talent and made eco-friendly Rakhis exhibiting originality  and their creative little minds. They created these auspicious threads, keeping in mind the prevailing social issues related to SDGs such as Gender Equality, Education for all, Swatch Bharat, Protection of Life on Earthand the list goes on. The essence of festival was given a new meaning when teachers through a Powerpoint Presentation, encouraged children totie Rakhi to any animal they choose to protectand care by dragging it to the given pictureframe. This activity was followed by an open-ended discussion on how our youngest earth saviours can protect or take care of all living creatures on earth. To maintain the sweetness quotient of this festival, even parents became partners and demonstrated some easy and healthy recipes with children like - Oreo Barfiand Besan Laddo. The sole purpose of conducting such an event was to bring out the hidden potential and educate these young creative minds about the importance of festivals and relationships in life.
