Marching past with heads held high, the Auxilians witnessed their leaders take the pledge on 26^th of April, 2018. The day was not only special because of the Investiture Ceremony but also because it is the Feast Day of our dear Mother General who is the head of the Salesian family.

The celebration of the Feast Day began with the lighting of the lamp by Sr. Principal, Sr. Vice-Principal, our Chief Guest Rev. Fr. Leo and Sr. Juliana. It was followed by a prayer for the well being of our dear Mother. Then, two musicians from Class VIII took us on a musical ride which truly mesmerized us. Next, we learnt how Mother is celebrating her Feast Day, also world Gratitude Day at Paraguay, this year. This informative speech was followed by a dance showcasing the talents of Class VII girls. The Feast day celebration was concluded with a PowerPoint Presentation on our dear Mother’s life and works.

The celebration of Feast of Gratitude was followed by the Investiture Ceremony where the school captains, vice- captains, house captains, house vice-captains, prefects, club presidents, class captains and class vice-captains took their pledges and were entrusted with their respective responsibilities by Sister Principal, Sister Vice-Principal, house and club moderators and class teachers. Next, a PowerPoint Presentation on leadership and responsibilities was shown to the students.

Our dear Sister Principal showed us videos on the Feast of Gratitude celebrations in Paraguay. Then Fr. Leo gave us an inspiring speech telling us how lively and capable we are and how we can achieve anything if we believe in ourselves. The ceremony was concluded with the vote of Thanks by one of our School Captains  Riti Banerjee.
