Thanksgiving Day - a festival of a certain part of the world however significant for all the human kind. There is always something to be thankful for. The enthusiastic kids of KG D and KG E celebrated the spirit of Thanksgiving and reminded everyone that you don’t need materialistic things in life to be happy. The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched; they must be felt with the heart. We should always appreciate the tiny, little things in our lives that make us who we are and should always express our gratitude- gratitude towards God, our family, our friends and our teachers.

The students danced beautifully and sang the soulful songs We give thanks and A gift to you. They emphasized that as we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.

Let us all give thanks not just on Thanksgiving Day but every day of our lives. Let’s appreciate and never take for granted all that we have.

Happy Thanksgiving!
