After a month of sedulous practicing, Auxi Aura –Bosco 200 had turned out to be an event of awe and enjoyment. This programme on the 16^th July 2015 was an endevour on the part of the Barasat Auxilians to spread our Founder and Father, Don Bosco’s mission to educate young children. The inaugural programme included a beautiful musical on Don Bosco- BOSCO ALIVE.  Sr. Rose Ezarath, the provincial of INC Kolkata province was the chief guest of the event and she declared the AUXI AURA ’15 open.

We had our neighbourhood schools coming in to participate in a host of cultural, educational and innovative events. International Public School, Sudhir Memorial Institute, Aditya Academy Senior Secondary, Adamas World School, Julien day School, Purba Barasat Adarsha Vidyapeeth, Mahatma Gandhi Memorial and Sankar Math O’ Mission wer the schools who competed with each other as also with us to bag various titles and prizes. It was a quest to sort out the best schools as also to uphold Don Bosco’s Maxim ‘ACT AS A SHINING LIGHT TO OTHERS.’  It was revelation of young talents as students engaged themselves in Mask – making, producing the best out of waste, painting and story writing. Little children showed their sudden impact within a fraction of 2 minutes, twisted and turned their bodies in Auxi star, better known as ‘Two Minutes to Fame. On stage  events had ecstatic participants searing the stage with their exuberant performances, like Auxi – Aradhana (Prayer song with action), Auxi –Exquizzit (Quiz), Auxi –Pep Up (Indipop) and Auxi Jhoomer an initiative to revive classical folk dance. We had Auxi – Floraux, Vibgyora, and other floral events intended to fill the fest with an essence of divinity. Auxi – Jhankar had undoubtedly made mellifluous hymns to enliven our souls. The fest ended with the guest performances of Sirsha Rakshit a renowned playback singer and Kushal Paul, a Zee Bangla Sa Re Ga Ma Pa champion and ultimately the programme ended with the National Anthem and prize Distribution Ceremony. The fest was added with a final touch of Disc- Jockeying (DJ) beats and the sparkling fireworks.
