The School Chairman Sailander Solanki shared his vision for continual growth so that the children from Venkateshwar Group of schools would be setting trends in the global context.

Élan Vital – The musical ballet celebrating the love for life showed human life as a kaleidoscope of emotions; wherein one shade complements the other. It also highlighted that this very basis of human existence takes us through a myriad of experiences some bitter, some sweet, both equally important for completing the circle of life. The love for life brings forth the creative forces which herald the growth and change summoning the will to conquer the Impossible. Ginni, the musical ballet inspired by the book `Totto Chan- the Little Girl At the Window’ was presented by young performers of Classes I and II and brought awareness to us that sometimes letting children to do what they want is a good way for them to learn too. The Pre-primary students revived the traditional art of puppet theatre and left the audience truly mesmerized.

Vishu Gupta was awarded the most prestigious `Chairman’s Trophy for Excellence’. Shaunak Narindra was honoured with the `Principal’s Award for Leadership’. Strength House was awarded the spectacular rolling trophy for `Overall Excellence in Co curricular Activities’.

Five `Classes of the Semester also got glittering rolling trophies having idols of Lord Venkateshwar, the presiding deity of Venkateshwar group of Schools.
