What children need most are the essentials that grandparents provide in abundance. They give unconditional love, kindness, patience, humour and comfort. They teach their children and grandchildren valuable life lessons like respecting others, helping people in need, moral and cultural values, etc. They are like warm sunshine in the garden of our lives, spreading love, wisdom, and joy.
To pay gratitude and to cherish the love and affection showered by our elders, UWCEC organized a Grandparents’ Day celebration with great enthusiasm. The stage was decorated with pictures of grandparents and grandchildren. There was music played in the background to welcome all Grandparents and they were given a beautiful butterfly badge.
The teachers had organized an activity where the grandparents and grandchildren together made puppets that symbolised grandparents. We could see the students guiding their grandpa and grandma to complete the activity. This was followed by a fun game of “glass pyramid ” which the grandparents enjoyed a lot. Winners were given gifts.
The grandparents shared their feedback about the event by pasting smiley faces on the feedback board. They also shared their experience with the UWCEC family. To cherish the memory of the event all grandparents took selfies at the selfie point. It was a day full of warmth, emotions and love and each face had a beautiful smile on it.
