Ruby Jubilee Celebrations at Carmel, Kuwait.

Forty glorious years have sped by since Carmel Convent and School took root in Kuwait's soil.

To commemorate the Ruby Jubilee Year, Carmel organized an array of activities starting with the glamourous Annual Day Celebrations of Class IV titled - A Festival of Dance and Music

followed by Std. V and VI with a 'Rainbow of Hope"

These were followed by intra-school competitions like the essay- writing, instrumental music, pantomime, colouring, hat making etc.

The school organised Community service programmes, taking up cleanliness drives in the vicinity around the school, arranging hospital visits and lectures and held a programme to entertain children with special needs.

Interspersing these events were a kaleidoscope of inter school competitions - the Essay writing, Folk Dance and the Battle of the Bands which drew the enthusiastic participation from the Indian schools in Kuwait.

The Carmel Alumni Association was launched with its vision 'Excel and Serve', providing an opportunity for ex-students to come together within the protals of their Alma Mater to renew relationships and maintain fellowship among global Carmelites, while being part of its endeavour to serve the community at large.

And to crown it all was the colourful extravaganza "Carmel Ruby Hues".

On this day the Ruby Jubilee magazine "Carmel Celezine" - a vivid reflection of life at Carmel School during the last forty years, was released.
