The Principal congratulated the new office bearers and encouraged them to tirelessly persist to be models for others to follow. They must always hold precious the values of School. A beautiful Odissi presentation titled Mokshya followed the Principals address. Mokshya literally means salvation. Odissi being dedicatory in essence, the movements signify man seeking to attain salvation with lyrical movements and sculpturesque poses. The audience spontaneously applauded the creative effort.
