An Inspiring Visit to “Teen Murti
Bhavan”
On 7th of March class 10 went on a visit to the official residence of the first Prime Minister of India, Teen Murti Bhavan. It was constructed in the year 1929, reflecting the beauty of British architecture and was supposed to be the residence of the viceroy of India. Lush green gardens and fountains surround it. Coincidently India's three legendary Prime Ministers; Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi have resided here. To honor these three Prime ministers, three 'Jyotis' named after them are kept burning. Now it is a museum showing the various stages in India's freedom struggle and the efforts put in by revolutionaries like Mahatma Gandhi and Subhas Chandra Bose.
Teen Murti Bhavan depicts Pandit Nehru's character that was honorable yet simple as shown by his speech engraved on a stone, which reflects his love for India and Indians. The Jawahar Jyoti is burning brightly as is the nation's never ending love for Chacha Nehru.

A TRIAL AND ERROR SPELLS SUCCESS
Vasant Valley showcased an English play "Trial and Error" on the 26th of March 2003.
It was an intense drama about a childrens' home in England and displayed the emotional and psychological realities of a childhood which has become rocky due to violent circumstances.
With magnificent acting from Umaid Gupta, Medha Basu and Farhad Colabawala, under a beautiful display of lights, the play turned out to be a truly memorable experience.
