Theme for

August-September 2013 :

TAARE ZAMEEN PAR…

"A child is a gift of God, a blessing from

above, a picture of purity

and innocence.

As Rabindranath Tagore says, 'every child

comes with a message that God is not yet

discouraged of man'.

Every child is a star on earth, is special,

who enriches and cleanses the soul, an

empty canvas, waiting to be painted with

love."

kids have participated in

and replay it for them.
