As a symbolic gesture of respect and sustainable growth, saplings were presented to the dignitaries, signifying renewal and the promise of flourishing beginnings. The ceremonial lighting of the lamp invoked the timeless belief that knowledge is a guiding light that must be carried forward with dignity and perseverance. The cultural segment of the ceremony reflected India's rich artistic heritage and the vibrant spirit of the Primary Wing. The school choir, Minstrels of Melody, presented soulful medleys that lent depth and solemnity to the occasion.

The moment underscored the school's emphasis on character as the cornerstone of education. The ceremony also recognised excellence and collective achievement.
