8th of August, the birthday of Mrs Gita Krishnamurthy, is celebrated at Gita Krishnamurthy Vidyalaya every year as the founder’s day.  As in 2020, this year also the celebrations could not be done with the full participation of all school children. Instead a smaller celebration was held with students from 6th to 10th standard invited to attend. The event was streamed live via Zoom for the benefit of trustees and other supporters and well wishers from around the country and the world. The function started with a prayer invocation by all the teachers. Mrs Usha Raman, the trustee of Sri Jai Sankara Trust gave a small speech and welcomed the chief guest who then gave a talk to motivate the children to take advantage of the opportunity provided to them by GKV for learning and all round development and the importance of good education for a better future.   The top two students of each class in GKV were then recognised with a token award. As were the top two students from GKV studying in 11th and 12th standard at Sri Jayendra school (our partner school). Due precautions  were observed as per Covid guidelines.  A few photographs of the function:
