Writing II
Which events do you celebrate at your school: Children's Day, Democracy Day, School Day, etc? Choose one and recall how it was celebrated last year. Write a paragraph about it. Use past tense.
Last year, our school celebrated Children's Day with great enthusiasm. The day began with a special assembly where teachers performed songs and skits just for us. There were games and activities organized throughout the day, including sack races and painting competitions. We also enjoyed a delicious lunch provided by the school. The highlight of the day was when the principal gave out awards and certificates for various achievements. Everyone had a fantastic time, and it was a wonderful way to appreciate and celebrate all the students.
