The staff and students of St. Lawrence High School and Junior College celebrated the Founder’s Day of the school by organizing a massive donation campaign.
Inculcating the values of the Founder, Mrs. Summan Datta, among the students was the primary motive of this donation campaign. Learning from her spirit of generosity and caring and sharing, the students of all grades, from grade 1 to 10 participated in this donation campaign.
A vast quantity of stationery, food grains, toiletries were donated by the students and parents. The students of class 9 painstakingly organized and packed the material for donating to a Zilla Parishad School and an Ashram School. Some of the material was also donated to the NAB centre.
The students and teachers visited all these schools and distributed the material.
The students of class 12 visited an old age home and donated grocery, utensils and pillows. The students presented a short cultural programme to uplift the spirit of the residents of the old age home. They also played games with them.
Through this activity, the students didn’t only express their love and gratitude for the Founder but also learnt the importance of compassion and empathy, and it inspired them to make a difference in the world.
