Hindi Diwas

Hindi Diwas is celebrated every year at SJBHS on 14 September and this year was no different, in spite of the pandemic. The online platforms were used to livestream celebrations glorifying one of the official languages of India. The virtual programme included songs, dances and speeches by the students, under the able guidance of the staff of the Hindi and Music departments with the wholehearted support of our Principal Fr Sunil Fernandes SJ, Vice Principal Mr. Uday Kumar and the Primary School Administrator Rev Fr Joel Fernandes SJ.
Fr Sunil Fernandes welcomed the gathering and introduced the esteemed chief guest Dr.Usha Rani, Principal of the Hindi B. Ed College, Bangalore. Dr. Rani had much to say about the ease of the vernacular and the thread that the Devanagiri script weaves, to bind a number of regional Indian languages.
