Warriors are not born, they are made in the Indian army.
To salute the Indian army, the students at The Indian School-Second Shift celebrated 73rd Army Day, with manifold activities to pay homage to the indomitable guardians of our frontiers.

A short video presentation was followed by a craft activity in which the children crafted soldier puppets with the help of paper cutouts and finger prints. They also sang ‘Sare Jahan se Achha’ as an appreciation for the oneness of and their love for their country.

The students drew sketches of their perceptions of the Indian army and those of 'Amar Jawan Jyoti '.
To celebrate our pride for the brave jawans who set the example of selfless sacrifice, service and brotherhood, the students of class III wrote expressive patriotic poems and urged their countrymen to stay united and fight against terrorism for the safety of all mankind.
