UWCEC Creates Wonderful Memories on The Last Day of The Year
UWCEC organised a summer party for the tiny tots on their last day of school. Everyone arrived at school in their summer attire with sunglasses and hats. The teachers had organised interesting games and activities which kept the little ones entertained throughout the day. Students enjoyed moving their hands in colourful paints while doing activities and had fun playing games such as penguin waddle, blow the ball and jump on shapes.
But the fun didn’t stop there. As the temperatures soared, the kids enjoyed the rain dance party! With water sprinklers and lively music filling the air, the children twirled and danced without abandon, cooling off in the refreshing spray of water.
As special treats for the occasion, the students were given crunchy and flavourful bhel and ice cream that had everyone’s taste buds dancing with delight. With all the lovely memories of laughter and friendship to cherish, they bid farewell, eagerly looking forward to the adventures that awaited in the sunny days ahead.

Gudi Padwa Celebration at UWCEC!
Gudi Padwa, a vibrant festival marking the beginning of the Hindu New Year, is celebrated with much enthusiasm and cheer across India. These celebrations not only acquaint the little ones with their cultural heritage but also foster a sense of unity and joy among them.
In UWCEC, Gudi Padwa was celebrated with great pomp by all the 3 classes. Teachers explained the significance of the festival through power point presentations and decorated the Gudi, in front of the children which ignited their creativity and curiosity.
Another integral part of the celebration was the story session, where teachers showed them story videos related to Gudi Padwa. Through these stories, children understood the cultural significance of the festival and the values of unity, happiness and hope.
This was followed by a ‘gudi’ making activity, where children enthusiastically participated in crafting miniature versions of the traditional gudi using colorful paper, sticks and decorative items. This activity not only enhances their fine motor skills but also educates them about the Gudi as it is the symbol of prosperity and good fortune.
In this way, UWCEC provided a delightful opportunity for children to immerse themselves in the rich cultural tapestry of Maharashtra, fostering a sense of belonging and pride in their heritage from a young age. These festivities not only brought joy and excitement but also laid the foundation for a lifelong appreciation of traditions and festivals.
