This year too, South Point School was a part of Daan Utsav, a week long festival of giving, which begins on Gandhi Jayanti and ends on October 8 every year. The children of Class I donated old toys in good condition to under privileged children, while those of Class II made a gift box containing small items and gave it to someone less fortunate than them. The pupils of Class III (Morning) were asked to donate stationery items and those of Class III (Afternoon) were asked to donate Bengali/English story books as gifts for children in care of non-profit organizations. Students of Classes IV & V were each asked to bring a new outfit for under privileged children. The response was overwhelming.
