Basant Panchami at VIS Sector 10 Dwarka: Celebrating Learning, Tradition, and Togetherness
At VIS Sector 10 Dwarka, festivals are more than just dates on a calendar. They are meaningful moments that bring our school community together, encourage reflection, and reinforce values that shape our learners for life. Basant Panchami is one such celebration – a beautiful occasion that welcomes spring while honouring knowledge, creativity, and the joy of learning.
This festival allows our learners to connect tradition with purpose, making learning an experience that feels both joyful and deeply rooted in culture.
What Is Basant Panchami?
Basant Panchami marks the arrival of spring and is celebrated on the fifth day of the lunar month of Magha. In Hindu tradition, the day is dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, the deity of wisdom, learning, music, and the arts.
The festival symbolises curiosity, growth, and the pursuit of knowledge, values that are central to our philosophy at VIS. It reminds learners that education is not limited to textbooks but is a lifelong journey of discovery and self-expression.
The Meaning Behind the Traditions
Yellow: The Colour of Spring
Yellow represents energy, positivity, and mental clarity. On Basant Panchami, learners wearing yellow fill the campus with warmth and optimism, reflecting the vibrancy of the season and the spirit of learning.
Honouring Knowledge Through Saraswati Puja
At VIS Sector 10 Dwarka, we observe Saraswati Puja within the school campus. Books, musical instruments, and art materials are placed with reverence, encouraging learners to reflect on the importance of knowledge in their lives. This quiet moment of gratitude allows students to pause, think about their learning journey, and set personal intentions for growth.

Through stories, discussions, and presentations, students learn about the significance of Basant Panchami and its connection to learning, curiosity, and creativity. These assemblies help learners understand tradition in a way that feels relevant and inspiring.
Teacher-Led Reflections Through Digital Storytelling
To extend the celebration beyond the classroom, we are creating a special social media reel featuring teachers sharing the essence of Basant Panchami. Through their reflections, educators highlight the importance of knowledge, values, and continuous learning, strengthening the connection between school, students, and parents.
