AUXILIUM DUM DUM: The students of Auxilium Dum Dum inaugurated the Media week on 16^th January 2014. The theme chosen for the week long celebration was based on the message of the Holy Father for the 47^th World Communication Day “Social Networks: Portals of Truth and Faith, New spaces for Evangelisation”.

The Media of the Club of the school along with their Coordinators depicted and enacted the theme in a creative manner through songs, skits, symposium and creative writing. All the programmes portrayed the importance of social networks.

We are living in an exceedingly fast paced world of high speed communication in the digital age. The speed of communication and transmission of data is ever on the increase and everyone has to adjust to this fast changing world. We are very much children of the media and the media can consciously mould our values, shape our mindsets and dictate our lifestyles. One needs therefore to make critical use of the media, make it a tool for personal growth.

In her concluding message Sr. Lucy Kachira said, Social Networks are helping to create an open public square in which people share ideas, information and opinions, and in which new relationships and forms of community can come into being. It is to strengthen bonds of unity between individuals and effectively promote harmony of the human family.
