Then, a few students of the Music Club joined the students of SY BAF in singing Carols, the highlight of every XMas celebration. The audience thoroughly enjoyed the rendition. The next item in the program was a skit performed by the students of SY BAF – which conveyed to the audience what Christmas is all about -importance of caring and sharing!! The members of the Adhata Trust were then invited to speak or perform something, if they desired. A couple of them came forward and sang songs, also spreading the message of sharing and love.
