Mangaluru, Mar 14: First Steps Pre-School, Kudroli celebrated Red Day on Friday March 14 with elegance. To mark the celebration, all the tiny tots wore red clothing and brought red fruits, vegetables and toys to share with the class. Each pre-schooler briefly described his or her red item brought to the class.

The classroom was decorated with red streamers, balloons and table settings. The bulletin board was designed with the word ‘Red’ with pictures of red animals, vehicles, plants and foods.

The Bloomings were asked to bring red objects for a ‘Show and Tell’ activity.

The teachers collected the objects from the children and displayed them on a table and taught them the names of the objects. They also introduced many other facts about them. The students were given a thorough understanding of the colour 'red' through different activities.

The kids actively participated and were very happy and excited. Parents were equally thrilled and overwhelmed by their child’s participation.

Career Guidance counsellor, distinguished toastmaster (DTM), Shameer Ahmed was the chief guest for the event. He addressed the students on the importance of colours and explained the purpose of conducting such an event to boost the confidence and creative culture in kids.

Headteacher, Himna S Ahmed enlightened the importance of colour in life. She further added that red is the best colour to create enthusiasm for life and can awaken greater confidence and optimism. In the meaning of colours, red inspires original thought and inquisitiveness.
