Nov 11, 2018 - Grade 5 (AM Sunday)

HariOm Parents,

We had a very interactive class this morning with lots of participation from the kids. It was our turn to lead the Aarti & Pledge today and the kids did a great job. Today we practiced and recorded Geeta chanting for Chapter 18 verses 41-44 for our house submission. It is awesome to see all kids actively participating & reciting. Here is a recording for your reference:  


One topic we would like bring parents attention to is to ensure that kids are in the class on-time, so we can start the prayers together, as most of the children are in the class by 9:20 am. 

Below is a detailed summary of the session from this morning.
