Onam is celebrated with great vigor and joy by the people
of Kerala.
At GSFS, the staff and the students celebrated Onam like one big family. The day started with a
prayer and speech on
the significance of Onam. Then a magnificent
RANGOLI with flowers of all kinds. The flowers where plucked from our own gardens at GSFS ASTA MARIA, BOTTLE BRUSH,
SUNFLOWER and ROSE were all arranged
perfectly and at the middle of the RANGOLI stood the classic “Nila vilakku”.
The staffs were in the gorgeous "mundum
neriyadhum" the traditional
dress of the women of the Malayali community. The grace and appeal of the golden borders
contrasting with the white mundu neriyadhum made them look like angels.All of us yearned
for a time like that of King Mahabali-a time when prosperity, joy and love blended. All
this ended with a sumptuous
"Onam Sadhya".
