Report on “SPIRITUAL ANTAKSHARI”
ActivityEvent Title: Spiritual Antakshari
Organized by: St. John Junior College
Conducted by: Ms. Purba Gilani
Date: September 16, 2025.
*Introduction
On September 16, 2025, Grade XI-Grade XII had a competition on Spiritual Antakshari. It was a pilot activity. For the 1st time an event of this kind was conducted. It is an endeavour to reach a holistic approach for the development of the students within the guidelines of the new NEP 2020.
*Activity Overview and Execution
As the title suggests, students of Grade11 & 12 focused on the arranging and organising the event from a spiritual point of view. They collated devotional songs and shloks in various languages.
Students were then divided into 2 groups to play the game. Each team had to sing a hymn or shlok with the end letter. It was an interesting event. Efforts were put to win the game.
* Conclusion
Students enjoyed the game. Every one put concentrated effort to win the game. Incidentally, it was a tie. Participants showed team spirit and respect for the game.
It was indeed a memorable event, more so, because this inovative idea was suggested by the principal of St John Juniour College, Mrs Suchita Gharat.
