UWCEC Ends the Year with Joy and Celebration
UWCEC Ends the Year with Joy and Celebration
To mark the end of a memorable academic year, UWCEC hosted a vibrant, fun-filled farewell celebration for its young learners. The school came alive with laughter, music, and a sense of joy as students from Nursery to Senior KG enjoyed a morning packed with engaging games, crafts, and special treats.
The Nursery children delighted in paper ball blowing games, Juniors had a blast with balloons, and Seniors enjoyed the lively “yes/no” chair-hopping challenge. Each class also explored their creativity—making summer goggles, headbands, and colorful caps.
A special treat of crunchy bhel, lovingly prepared by the teachers, added warmth to the day, while cartoon screenings wrapped up the celebration with giggles and wide-eyed excitement.
The event wasn’t just a party—it was a beautiful goodbye to a year of growth, learning, and memories. With hearts full of joy, the students stepped into their summer break, ready for a season of fun, rest, and new adventures.

Gudi Padwa Celebration at UWCEC
Gudi Padwa is a traditional festival that marks the beginning of the Hindu New Year and it is usually celebrated in March or April. This festival has both a cultural and religious significance.
The term “Gudi Padwa” is derived from two words “Gudi”, which refers to a decorative flag on the banner made of a bright cloth and placed on a pole and “Padwa”, which means the first day of the month.
At UWCEC, the teachers explained to the students why we celebrate Gudi Padwa by showing them a powerpoint presentation and also a video based on the story of Gudi Padwa.
The children also erected a Gudi in their own classes and discussed the importance of it. The teachers guided the students and they worshiped the Gudi.
This was followed by various activities done in each class. The tiny tots of Nursery made a Gudi with craft paper under the guidance of their teachers; Jr.kg coloured a Gudi Padwa worksheet and Sr.kg made greeting cards with the help of their teachers. All these activities developed their fine motor skills.
It was a fun and special festival marking the start of a new year for Maharashtrian people and it was celebrated with great enthusiasm by everyone at UWCEC.
