कविता पाठ अभिव्यक्ति की एक कला है जो बच्चों की शब्दावली बढ़ाने में मदद करता है। यह छात्रों को आंतरिक प्रतिभाओं का पता लगाने में सक्षम बनाता है और आत्मविश्वास भी बनाता है। हिंदी दिवस पर स्टार्ज विंग के बच्चों ने भाषा के प्रति अपनी प्रशंसा दिखाने के लिए 'गुदगुदी ' और 'मेरा बचपन' विषयों पर मधुर कविताओं का पाठ किया।
