Answer 1

Prayer/welcome song-

Good morning, respected principal ma’am, teachers and my dear friends. Today, we have gathered here on this beautiful day to celebrate World Yoga day. Let’s begin our day by seeking the blessings of our creator which will be followed by a welcome song performed by the first-year students of the Arts departments.
(Prayer and song)

Introduction-

To give you all a brief background of this day, ‘International Yoga Day’ was proposed by none other than our Honorable Prime Minister at the United Nations General Assembly in 2015. The first ‘International Yoga Day’ was observed on the 21st of June 2015. The response received was massive and since then every year 21st June has been observed as ‘International Yoga Day’ worldwide.

Yoga demonstration-

On that note, I’d like to call upon stage, the sports head of our college, Mr. Mehta, who is also a certified Yoga instructor, to demonstrate a few yoga asanas. The students are requested to spread the yoga mats and follow sir as he does the asanas. (Yoga demonstrate)

Felicitation-

Now it’s time to acknowledge the talent of our hard-working students. It gives me immense pleasure and pride in informing all of you that the football team of our college has been practising yoga regularly and it has helped them to excel not only in the class but also on the field. Recently, the team brought laurels to our college by bagging the first position in the Adidas football league. I’d again request Mr. Iyer to come forward and felicitate them for their determination and commitment.

Presidential address-

I’d now like to call upon stage, a well-respected personality who needs no introduction, our honourable principal Ma’am to share her thoughts and inspiring words on this wonderful occasion. (Principal speech)

Any other important points-

Thank you for your motivating words ma’am. We are lucky to have you as our principal. Am sure each one of us present here will take home the message of practicing yoga daily, regardless of age group. Yoga helps us in staying fit and healthy. Practising Yoga has a bundle of benefits linked to it. It brings a positive change in one’s mental health too.

Vote of thanks-

I would like to conclude today’s programme by thanking each and every member of the organizing committee for their continuous effort and hard-work Our Principal and Teachers for their continuous support. Last, but not least, thank you, to the audience, for being so supportive and responsive.
