Lord Baden Powell & Lady Olave Powell:-
22nd February is an auspicious day for all the lovers of Scouts & Guides family. On this day the founders of this movement, Lord Baden Powell and his wife Lady Baden Powell were born on the same day but a difference of 32 years. Anugraha School at Halbarga took every chance to celebrate this unique day in a very befitting manner though this year it fell on a Sunday. Fr. Wilson Fernandes, the principal of St. Mary’s English School, Kalaburagi hoisted the Scouts & Guides flag at 7.30 a.m. and Mr. Parameshwar Kundan, the headmaster of famous Gangamma High School, Halbarga assisted him. Revanna Sidh (cub) acted as Baden Powell and Arpitha (Bulbul) acted as Olave Powell and cut the birthday cake and shared with all present. After the colourful programme all the 98 cubs and bulbuls went for Hiking to Basavakalyan and other places and returned in the evening at 7 p.m. Though it was a Sunday most of the cubs and bulbuls participated in the programme. The specialty of the day was:- All the 15 teaching and non-teaching staff of Anugraha school participated actively throughout the day encouraging the cubs and bulbuls wearing the special dress. Please pray for these tiny tots that they may walk on the footsteps of their founders and become famous citizens. Thank you
