Labour Day stands as a tribute to the countless individuals whose work, though often unseen, is vital to our daily lives. This day is a powerful reminder of the dignity of labour and the collective effort that builds strong, functioning societies. At Apeejay School, Charkhi Dadri, this year’s celebration was filled with emotion, colour, and compassion as young learners came together to thank the school’s support staff with heartfelt gestures.
In an initiative that beautifully combined creativity and kindness, the school dedicated the day to appreciating its ancillary staff—those who work tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure the school runs like clockwork.
Little Hands, Big Hearts
Under the gentle guidance of their teachers, students from the primary wing poured their love and respect into handmade “Thank You” cards. Using bright colours, stickers, and sweet, simple messages, the children expressed their admiration for the housekeeping staff, security guards, gardeners, and other support personnel who form the backbone of the school community.
These tokens of gratitude were not just made—they were personally delivered. In a touching ceremony held on the school premises, each student handed their card to a member of the support staff, offering kind words and cheerful smiles. The atmosphere was one of warmth, mutual respect, and genuine joy. Many staff members were visibly moved, and their blessings in return were heartfelt.
The celebration served as a live lesson in empathy, the dignity of labour, and the importance of community. It helped young minds understand that every role, no matter how humble, contributes to the greater good.
A Moment to Remember
The event concluded with a short yet meaningful address by Principal Mr. Vineet Vashishtha, who praised the students and teachers for their thoughtful efforts. He reminded everyone that when we acknowledge and respect every individual’s contribution, we create a more united, compassionate world. Labour Day at Apeejay Charkhi Dadri was not just observed—it was truly felt, lived, and cherished.

As the celebrations drew to an end, what lingered was a sense of shared humanity and heartfelt appreciation. The smiles exchanged, the cards handed over with pride, and the blessings received in return created memories that will stay with the students for years to come. It was a reminder that small acts of kindness can make a big difference—and that true learning lies not just in books, but in values lived and shared.
