Earlier this week, 14 Catholic schools from East Nepal gathered at Navjyoti School in Dharan for a celebration of young talent and community. The event, part of the Purvanchal region’s educational mission, featured competitions and a cultural song fest, showcasing the diverse skills and creativity of the students.

Navjyoti School students excelled, winning several prizes. The event was not only a platform for individual achievement but also a witness to the collaboration and team spirit that defined the day. The Sisters, staff, and students worked together, displaying unity and dedication to the mission of Catholic education.

“We thank God for Navjyoti, Dharan, and its educational ventures,” said Amelia Moras, SCN, reflecting on the event’s success and the hard work that made it possible.

Raksha Bandhan is a traditional Indian festival that celebrates the bond of love, care, respect, and protection between brothers and sisters. On this day, a sister traditionally ties a rakhi (a sacred or decorative thread) around her brother’s wrist. In return, the brother expresses his love and commitment to care for and support her. Gifts and sweets are also commonly exchanged.

This beautiful tradition was creatively and meaningfully celebrated by the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth in Vasai.
