Hari Om Parents,
We had a great class today. Since we have concluded the story of Ramayana, we talked about sage Valmiki who wrote this great scripture. We heard about his background and how he got his name. How he got inspired to write Ramayana. Since we are encouraging our students to tell their favorite story from now on, one of the student shared the story of "Ganesha and Karthikeyan" and how they were asked to circle the earth three times. While Karthikeyan rode on his peacock to go around the earth, Ganesha simply circled his parents three times.
After the story we all circled our tables three times pretending we were Ganesha circling around our parents.It was so much fun.The coloring books have been returned back to the students. Please see that your child has finished every page in the book. Please make sure that they bring the coloring book to every class.
Congratulations to all who participated in Geeta Chanting competition. We saw the beautiful medals that each participant received and applauded them.We have started learning a new sholka that summarizes the whole Ramayana. We will practice more during the coming classes.
The class ended with aarthi and pledge. We will not meet on April 28th. Also we are celebrating annual function on May 5th. Please plan to attend as it will be packed with beautiful performance from Balavihar kids. Our next class will be on May 12th. Thank You and enjoy the beautiful weather.
