Principal Sister Saropiya said Christmas was the festival of joy and happiness. She stated that by imbibing the spirit of the festival, people should spread the message of joy and happiness that was lacking in the world. She advised students to emulate the teachings of Jesus Christ and serve the needy in their own ways.

A festive mood prevailed across the campus with children donning Santa Claus and angel costumes and students taking out a parade with bands. Dignitaries cut a massive cake as part of the celebrations and distributed it to the students.
