Apeejay School, Pitampura, celebrated Diwali with a special assembly organised by Dedication House. The programme brought together devotional music, dance, theatre and cultural presentations to highlight the significance of the festival and encourage students to celebrate it responsibly.
The assembly began with a soulful Stuti and Bhajan, creating an atmosphere of devotion and positivity. This was followed by an energetic dance performance titled Jashan-e-Diwali, which added a festive touch to the celebration and reflected the enthusiasm surrounding the occasion.
One of the key presentations was an English skit titled One India, Many Diwalis. Through the performance, students showcased the different ways in which Diwali is celebrated across India, drawing attention to the country’s cultural diversity and the shared spirit that connects communities during the festival.


The students also presented a Ramayana Manchan, highlighting the timeless values associated with the epic, including truth, righteousness and the victory of good over evil. The enactment offered an opportunity to revisit the significance of Lord Rama’s return to Ayodhya and the values that continue to shape the festival’s message.
An important part of the assembly was the Green Diwali Pledge. Through the pledge, students committed themselves to celebrating the festival in an eco-friendly and responsible manner. The initiative highlighted the importance of making conscious choices during festivities and considering their impact on the environment.

The address emphasised that Diwali should be celebrated with joy and compassion, while remaining mindful of environmental concerns. The message encouraged students to carry the spirit of responsibility into their celebrations beyond the school.

The programme concluded with a message of unity, goodness and responsible celebration, reinforcing the idea that the true spirit of Diwali lies not only in festivities but also in the values of compassion, togetherness and care for the environment.
