Aarohan
DAIS FOR CREATIVITY, FUN AND GREAT CAMARADERIE
Aarohan – All India Inter-School Youth Festival
Hosted By Choithram School, Manik Bagh
Concept

Our school is an institution, which believes in innovative ways of learning and preparing the future citizens of our country for the global enterprise. Keeping this in mind, All Indian Inter School Youth Festival, Aarohan, an attempt to soar high and reach the pinnacle was our humble attempt towards three fun-filled days of extravaganza, creativity, fruitful interaction and rich memories in the year 2007.
When the children of today understand one another better, they will cooperate with one another in times to come. The spirit of cooperation and understanding will induce them to spread the message of love and brotherhood in the world. It is for these reasons that our school looks forward to greater interaction among the youth. The youth festival is, thus, a dais for creativity, fun and great camaraderie sprinkled with flavors of healthy competition and vigour. The entire programme and various events are anchored and managed by school prefects and students.
