International Youth Day celebrates at Homerton Grammar

Faridabad/ Alive News: Homerton Grammar School, Sector 21/A celebrated UNESCO recognised International Youth Day on 12th August 2017 with great zeal and enthusiasm. The program was showcased keeping in mind the themes “Youth and Cleanliness”. The young minds were inspired to promote and spread peace through a variety of innovative and inspiring activities. Students from classes 10th to 12th presented a very powerful skit at the Government Senior Secondary School highlighting the responsibilities of youth, where they showed that today’s youth would soon take over the country and change it for the better and the nation would see a revolution. The youth of today, with its fresh ideas and opinions would soon bring about a change that would change the way the world looks at India. The efforts of the students were duly appreciated.

A presentation on the legendary Youth Activist Malala Yousafzai was also given by the Head Boy, Paras Chaprana and the Head Girl, Radhika Besoya. Pallavi and Abhay of Class 10th recited beautiful poetry ‘Hum Hain Yuva’. They enlightened the other students about the importance of youth in the current world with beautiful lines which served as a great source of Inspiration for the students.

Roma Mittal and Harnek Singh of class 12th made students aware of their talent potential which can bring a major revolution in this world. Emphasis was also laid on the role which youth can play to bring peace in the areas like Kashmir, Iraq, Syria and Israel. By expanding tourism across Kashmir, India and Pakistan could strengthen the cross-border economic and personal interconnections that will pave the way for peace building. Homertonians believe that the country is in dire need of a revolution and the only hope is the youth. With their vision and far sightedness, the youth can bring to the plate not only changes, but freshness which the country could use to give itself an image makeover. India is a young country and it needs to start acting like one, we have a long way to go and we need to start working towards it. The whole programme was highly appreciated by the Principal, Archana Dogra.
