A night camp at school is more than just an adventure; children build interpersonal bonds that last a lifetime. On November 16, 2024 a night camp was organized for the students of Class V. The Nursery Foyer was ornately designed by the art department based on the theme Festivals of India at the entrance. Teachers of class V registered all the students and allotted their rooms on the names of various festivals of India like Holi, Diwali, Onam. The students, on their arrival were adorned with beautiful headgears and served with a welcome drink. As the children embarked upon an unforgettable evening, the assembly began with prayer and shloka. Teachers presented a rib-tickling play named Matilda.

Students were enthralled by the dance performance by their beautiful teachers. It concluded with a motivating and welcoming speech by Anjali Ma’am. Once everyone was settled, the evening set in with many thought-provoking and entertaining outdoor games. An array of holistic activities such as Shoot the Colours, Jump Rope, Glass Gulp, Freeze Dance, Feed the Clown, Flip-Flop with Bottles, created a fantasy land for the children. The Tractor by the Stars was the highlight of the evening. Amidst the flurry of activities and games, they relished delectable dishes that satisfied their craving. One of the most cherished moments of the camp was the movie screening. The movie Safar was screened for the students at MPH. The cultural performances prepared by the students left an indelible mark on everyone.

The crackling fire and soft glow of the bonfire created a cozy setting that sparked the students to dance and sing songs. The next day was a fresh start and the children in their renewed energy along with their teachers had a small Yoga session. They went for a morning walk followed by exercises. After the workout session, a hearty breakfast was served. After breakfast, everyone gathered for the morning assembly where Anjali Ma’am addressed the gathering and appreciated the students for their excellent display of discipline. The most disciplined and overall best groups were appreciated and awarded. The students packed their bags, and parted, enriched by their most treasured experience, perhaps, the first night out, with a desire to come back again.
