Basant Panchami, as an important Hindu festival, that marks the end of the winter season and ushers in the springtime was celebrated by the children with much verve and enthusiasm. The Goenkan portals were enveloped with the flowery fragrance when our tiny tots hailed Goddess Saraswati by offering yellow flowers. They made the surroundings mystical as they said prayers for wisdom and their well being. They were given Pencils and traditional yellow rice prasad which they thoroughly relished.
