Dusshera Celebration at UWCEC
Dussehra is the most auspicious festival celebrated by Hindus across India.This festival is also popularly known as Vijayadashami in some parts of the country. Dussehra symbolizes Lord Rama’s victory over the demon King Ravana which signifies the victory of the power of good over evil.
Keeping this in mind UWCEC celebrated the festival of Dussehra with enthusiasm. Students and Teachers were dressed in vibrant and adorable traditional outfits.
A short-animated story of Lord Ram’s triumph over Ravana was shown to the students which explained the significance of Dussehra. Students enjoyed watching it, and they were not only entertained but were also educated about the cultural and historical importance of this festival.
In addition, fun-filled art work such as Finger puppets of Ravan, Apta leaf decoration and Ravan face template was done by the tiny tots.
Students played Garba together and made this event a memorable one. Such events allow the young minds to get connected to the cultural roots of our nation and embrace the values of good conquering evil.
In this way, a day filled with laughter and learning was held at UWCEC.

Field trips are an essential part of a child’s education, as they offer them valuable opportunities to explore the world beyond the classroom. Keeping this in mind, one such enriching experience was given to the Jr.Kg. students of UWCEC as they were taken for a field trip to a Traffic Park. This visit not only introduced the young minds to the rules of the road but also imparted crucial life lessons of safety, cooperation and responsibility.
A traffic park is a scaled-down replica of a real city’s road network and is designed to educate children about road safety. It typically includes miniature streets, traffic lights, road signs and even pedal-powered vehicles. There were instructors who explained the traffic rules with a practical demo which helped the children to understand the concepts like stopping at red lights, yielding to pedestrians, the meaning of various sign boards and using crosswalks.
As UWCEC always encourages parental involvement, few parents of other sections were invited to accompany the children to the traffic park as parents can help their children apply the knowledge and skills acquired during the trip in their daily lives.
In this way, a fun and educational visit was organized by UWCEC.
