Observing World Day Against Child Labour at Santhi School

Today, Santhi School stands united in raising awareness as we observe World Day Against Child Labour with a deep sense of purpose and responsibility. The students of Santhi School participate in a special assembly where they perform a powerful skit and deliver speeches highlighting the harmful effects of child labour and the importance of education for every child. Guided by the principal and teachers of Santhi School, students learn about global efforts to eliminate child exploitation and discuss ways to support children’s rights, dignity, and freedom.

To reinforce this important message, Santhi School organizes a poster-making competition and a thought-provoking essay activity that encourages students to express their views creatively and deeply. The event not only fosters awareness but also promotes unity and empathy among the students of Santhi School. By observing World Day Against Child Labour, Santhi School empowers every student to stand against injustice and advocate for a future where every child learns and grows in a safe and nurturing environment.
