Memorial Service: People’s President Late Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam (VVA Snr. Sec. Section)
A special memorial service was held by the students of Vidya Vikas Academy on Saturday, 1st August 2015, to honour the memory of our former President of India, Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam.
Rich tributes were paid to the extraordinary life and achievements of the Missile-Man turned People’s President. Senior Secondary students presented little known facts from his life which highlighted his simplicity, humility and compassion.
The portrait of the late President was garlanded by the Principal of Vidya Vikas Academy, Dr. Alan Rodrigues. The lamp was then lit by him and by the Vice Principals Mrs. JobleBijoy (Sr. Sec) and Tania Monteiro (Secondary & Primary) and the Pre-Primary In charge, Mrs. Hilda Barbosa and Enny D’Souza.
A prayer service was followed by a hymn (sung by the students of class 8 ) and an interesting PowerPoint Presentation . A wallpaper featuring quotes from Abdul Kalam’s writings and speeches was displayed in the foyer.
The program was coordinated by Tr. Shaheena Basha.
