CELEBRATION
GANESH CHATURTHI CELEBRATION
MODAK MAKING
nd
CLASS 9 TO 12 (22 AUG-2020)
The year 2020 has been different in more ways than one for all of us. The global pandemic has made us
physically apart but virtually closer to each other. There is an unacquainted way of communication that
each one of us is getting used to. In spite of all these new normals, India is a country rich in culture and
the Indian never fails to celebrate each festival with the same devotion and dedication which is his
adherent nature. Every year, at NVN, Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated with great fervor and excitement
by the students and staff equally.
The eldest and the most matured of the lot, the students of Grade 9-12, were given a task that they
thoroughly enjoyed and showcased their culinary talent by “Making Modak From the Ingredients
Available at Home”. The haute cuisine of Modak looked absolutely scrumptious, delectable and
savory.
The celebrations on this day were symbol of the positive approach in these dire times and boosted the
faith of each participant in the all-powerful source of positivity 'Lord Ganesha'.
The students of Grade 6-8 showed their devotion and faith by “Chanting the Ganesh Strotra or Ganesh
Mantra” virtually. The melody and innocence in their voice was so palpable that it would have soothed
and moved the Big Eared Ganesha too.
