Grand Parents' Day and World Literacy Day - Special Assembly
Grandparents’ Day and World Literacy Day Assembly DPSG International celebrated Grandparents’ Day and World Literacy Day through a special assembly conducted by the students of Grade VIII on September 14, 2026. The assembly brought together two meaningful themes—gratitude towards grandparents and the transformative power of education and literacy. The programme commenced with the sharing of the Vocabulary Word for the Day and the Thought for the Day, setting an inspiring tone for the occasion. Students then presented informative segments highlighting the significance of Grandparents’ Day and World Literacy Day, drawing attention to the invaluable role of grandparents in nurturing families and passing on wisdom, values, traditions, and life experiences. The assembly highlighted that education and literacy extend far beyond books, classrooms, and formal learning. Knowledge is also gained through conversations, stories, observations, experiences, and the wisdom shared by those around us. Through their well-researched content, confident presentation, and meaningful reflections, the participants demonstrated the Learner Profile attribute of being Knowledgeable. The Head of School, Dr Tanushree Sharma, appreciated the students for their well-coordinated and thoughtful performance. Addressing the students, she encouraged them to value, respect, and care for their grandparents. She reminded them that love, companionship, and thoughtful gestures can make a meaningful difference in the lives of elderly family members. At her behest, a card-making activity was organised in the school, where students enthusiastically created colourful and heartfelt cards for their grandparents and later presented them at home. The assembly promoted Quality Education (SDG 4) by encouraging students to learn beyond textbooks and develop empathy, awareness, and social responsibility. It also reinforced Reduced Inequalities (SDG 10) by fostering respect, inclusion, and dignity for senior citizens, while the emphasis on family bonds, shared values, and collective responsibility reflected the spirit of Partnerships for the Goals (SDG 17). The celebration was a meaningful reminder that education is not confined to books or classrooms; it is enriched by conversations, experiences, relationships, and the wisdom exchanged between generations. It encouraged students to become knowledgeable, compassionate, responsible, and connected individuals who value and learn from every generation.
