Dear Students & Parents, Oct 2, 2001

Our school will be celebrating Vijayadashami (Vidya-arambam) on Friday the 26th of October, 2001. Students of vocal music, violin, and mridangam disciplines and their parents are requested to participate in the celebrations.

From this year onwards, we are planning to hold series of mini concerts regularly with vocal, violin and mridangam students performing on the stage. These concerts will be of duration of one to one and a quarter hour each. This will be a motivation for students to practice & perform on the stage, and graduate into regular concerts. The first of the series will be held on the auspicious occasion of Vijayadashami day. The venues/schedule are given below.
