FEATURED EVENT: Zephyr'11
Delhi Public School Newtown celebrated its Annual Carnival “Zephyr’11” on 8th & 9th January 2011. The event was held on the school grounds. The Social Service Club chose this day to donate 200 blankets to the “Baikunthapur Tarun Sangha”, an NGO working with the under privileged in the remote regions of the Sunderbans. The “Aila” last year, had ravaged their homes, their livelihood and scarred their lives and this was a small attempt on our part to reach out to them.
Students from all classes actively participated in the Carnival. There were stalls put up by students from classes Nursery to XI. There were many rides such as Columbus, Toy Train, Break Dance, Bouncing Castle and many more which were the star attractions. There were exciting and innovative games stalls at the venue and also others that offered Face Painting, Mehendi, Hair Braiding and other exciting options for the visitors.
Various stage events simultaneously took place such as the Poor Joke Competition, The Duo Dance, The Fancy Dress Competition along with crowning the Zephyr Prince and Princess 2011. A Magic Show and a performance by the School band made the day memorable for all.
The crowning glory of the Carnival was the Lucky Draw for Parents and Teachers with many exciting gifts to be won. What made this day very special was the fact that all the proceeds from the Carnival and funds generated would be used by the school for charitable purposes to help make the students more sensitive to the plight of those less fortunate than them.
The carnival at DPS Newtown gave the students a welcome break from the routine of books and classroom and also gave them several memorable moments to cherish for a life time.
