On July 29, 2024, the Girls Section of The Rajkumar College, Rajkot, organized a Rakhi Making Competition with the aim of creating rakhis for Indian Army soldiers. This event sought to instill a sense of patriotism and gratitude among the students.

The competition saw enthusiastic participation from students of various grades who were tasked with creating rakhis incorporating patriotic themes along with traditional designs. Judging criteria included creativity, craftsmanship, and thematic relevance.

The event was highly successful, resulting in  more than  1000 high-quality rakhis  that showcased the students’ artistic skills and national pride. These handcrafted rakhis were sent to army units nationwide, accompanied by personal messages from the students.

This competition effectively combined cultural tradition with civic duty, providing an opportunity for students to appreciate the armed forces and develop their creative abilities. It served as a meaningful way to connect students with the broader national community and instill gratitude towards those serving in the military.

We introduced a Clay Modelling competition for the very first time at our school, The Rajkumar College, Rajkot.

The quality of work was so impressive that the judges found it challenging to determine the rankings, as all entries demonstrated exceptional skill and creativity.
