The two comperes of Std. III A warmly welcomed everyone in the school hall for the morning assembly on 24^th July 2013. The backdrop held pictures of how we can all practise being safe in school and at other places. 

The assembly began with a skit which depicted a classroom scene where the teacher witnessed situations in which students could cause harm to others in the classroom. The message - do not carry sharp objects, do not indulge in fights, play safely on the playground, do not bully others nor push others. If these rules are practiced, we will be safe and happy.  A group of students then recited a prayer placing everyone present in the hands of God, and sought His blessings, to keep everyone safe in school and protect us from all danger and harm.

In the power-point presentation there was a wonderful poem on 'Safety Rules'.  There were 5 basic rules for everyone to follow and practise daily - Be Nice, Raise Your Hand And Speak, Keep Your Hands and Feet To Yourself, Clean the Place, and Do Not Bully Others. This poem was sung and depicted with examples to help remember these 5 'Safety Rules' always.

The students of Std. III A had a special surprise for all the class teachers of the Primary Section. A chart with 'Rules' was handed to every class teacher for display on the flannel boards in their classrooms.  Fr. Bernard (Principal) then addressed the students. He was amazed at the wonderful presentation of the students and thanked and congratulated them and their class teacher.  He was happy with the manner in which they enlightened us with 'safety tips' which were practical and easy to remember.. The winners of the Friday activity – Frog Race (Std. I & II) and Picture coloring competition (Std. III & IV) – were then awarded their certificates by Fr. Principal.
