Christmas celebrations this time at Jaagriti were a bit different. Along with the volunteers we had people from around Dwarka and a couple of volunteers from Rotaract club of NSIT Regency who came to ensure that this Christmas becomes one of the most memorable one for the kids. The children awaited their advent with great enthusiasm and excitement. They decorated their classroom and also a small Christmas tree to make sure that Santa makes a visit to their place. Santa, the father of the local Church in Dwarka and rest all came in a mini-bus. As soon as they got down they were greeted with applause and a loud "Merry Christmas".
The children had made drawings of Santa, Christmas tree, bells and snowman, which they showcased on their arrival and convinced everyone about their fabulous aesthetic skills. The visitors too had come with full preparations. They sang Carols, interacted with the kids and distributed cakes to everyone around. The Father discussed with the young buds about the significance of Christmas and did take something back from them- a promise to keep smiling and laughing always.
However, the show was stolen by Santa all alone. He shook hands with kids, gifted them toffees and grooved to the songs sung by them. It was a very rejuvenating experience for one and all present there. We thank all of them for spending their precious time with us and appreciating our efforts and look forward for their presence next time too. The children are still in an awe of the celebrations and the smile on their face has only got widened.
