International Yoga Day is celebrated on 21st June. The idea of celebrating International Yoga Day simultaneously across the world was put forward by the Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi, during his speech in the United Nations General Assembly on 27th September 2014 and this proposal received tremendous support from 177 out of 197 countries. Every year Yoga Day is celebrated with different themes and this time the theme for 2025 is ‘One Earth One Health’. 21st June is also called Summer Solstice because this day is considered to be the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and Yoga also makes a person long-lived. The Principal inspired the children to do Yoga every day because Yoga makes a person physically and mentally strong. Celebrating 21st June as Yoga Day at the international level started in India in 2015. Doing Yoga keeps both the body and mind healthy. After that the children of the school did Yoga and meditation with joy. All the teachers, students and staff of the school played an important role in making the activities organised on the occasion of Yoga Day successful.
