Maker’s Day is a special occasion that marks the celebration of skills and creativity, held annually on 12th October. This significant day was chosen to honor the birth anniversary of our beloved late Trustee Mrs. Sunita Gajera, a visionary who dreamed of providing a launchpad for young creators and makers. Her vision aimed to empower individuals to express themselves through art, innovation, and creativity. This year, on 17th December 2023, Gajera Vidybhavan Sachin celebrated Maker’s Day under the theme ‘Anubhuti,’ The Compassion Fiesta.
The vibrant campus of Gajera Vidyabhavan Sachin came alive with creativity, talent, and enthusiasm as the school celebrated Maker’s Day, a day dedicated to showcasing the artistic and innovative prowess of its students. The presence of distinguished guests added a touch of prestige to the event. The chief guests for the day were Mr. Yahya Khan from Cogent Ink, Advocate Vinod Patil, and Mrs. Bhavini M. Golwala. The event kicked off with a spiritual touch as students performed a soulful Ganesh Vandana, setting the tone for a day filled with cultural diversity and artistic expression.
The air resonated with melody as the students took center stage, presenting a harmonious song that echoed through the hearts of the audience. Following the musical interlude, the spotlight shifted to the youngest members of the school – our little learners, who captivated everyone with a delightful dance performance that left smiles on the faces of the onlookers.
The secondary students took the stage, bringing forth the traditional fervor of Garba. The rhythmic beats of the dance reverberated, and the colorful swirls of ghaghra added a festive touch to the celebration. In a heart-touching gesture, our learners paid a poignant tribute to the brave soldiers through a heartfelt dance performance, reminding everyone of the sacrifices made for the nation.
The festivities continued with a burst of creativity as students participated in a mime competition and a thought-provoking Nukkad Natak, addressing social issues with a touch of humor and earnestness. The event also opened up opportunities for the parents to indulge in a variety of experiences, exploring stalls run by our learners.
From delectable food items to ethnic dresses and engaging games, the stalls offered a glimpse into the diverse talents nurtured within the school. Adding a musical flavor to the evening, live music organized by our educators resonated through the air, creating an atmosphere of joy and camaraderie that was thoroughly enjoyed by the audience.
Maker’s Day at Gajera Vidyabhavan Sachin was not just a celebration; it was a testament to the school’s commitment to fostering creativity, talent, and a sense of community.
