Culture of Respect: Lessons from Children’s Day Celebrations

Children, with their boundless curiosity, innocence, and unfiltered honesty, are the future of our society. At Gyan Vihar School, a leading CBSE school in Jaipur, we understand the importance of fostering a culture of respect and empathy from a young age. Children’s Day, celebrated on November 14th in India, offers a valuable opportunity to instill these values in the hearts of our students. In this blog post, we’ll explore the significance of Children’s Day, the lessons it imparts, and how it contributes to building a culture of respect in schools in Jaipur and beyond.
