Independence Day is celebrated every year on 15 August to mark India's freedom from British rule in 1947. At Montfort School CBSE, we observe this national day with pride and patriotism, honouring the sacrifices of our freedom fighters and reaffirming our commitment to a united, sovereign India.
The day begins with the hoisting of the national flag, followed by the national anthem. Students and staff come together to pay tribute to the leaders and countless others who fought for our independence. Speeches, patriotic songs, and cultural programmes highlight the significance of freedom and our duties as citizens.
Our Independence Day programme includes flag hoisting, pledge-taking, and performances by students—including patriotic songs, dances, skits, and recitations. The emphasis is on understanding the value of freedom and the responsibility that comes with it. The celebration reinforces our school's values of unity, discipline, and national pride.
Below are some memorable moments from our Independence Day celebrations at Montfort School CBSE.
