Thiruvananthapuram: Although the victory of the Onam this year was damaged by pandemics, schools in this district used various ways to lift the spirit of students.

Many kind of good parents along with our teachers have collected almost RS 3.5 Lakh for the initiative launched as Part of ‘Koodeondu Cotton Hill’.
Nearly 400 talented students with dresses, “said Headmaster K Buhari.
Meanwhile, many other schools set a virtual Onam celebration.

“I am very happy to see the efforts included by teachers, students and parents to bring variations in the program.
It is fun to witness the spirit of students from class I to XII.
We have many North Indian students in our school who are not familiar with traditions Behind Onam.
For students like that, our celebration is indeed a new experience, “he added.
