Mangaluru, Jun 10: Lourdes Central School witnessed a thoughtful presentation of values that transcend tradition — sacrifice, patience, and faith on June 10 —by the students of grade 10 marking Eid-al-Adha.

The programme opened with the universal prayer and prayer Song, setting a reflective tone. A recitation of Surah Al-Asr by Farhan (10A), followed by an English translation by Tabifa (10A), gently reminded the gathering of the fleeting nature of time and the importance of righteous living.

A highlight of the assembly was a skit that portrayed the story of Ibrahim and Ismail with sincerity and restraint. The cast featured Simra (10C) as the narrator, Hayyan (10C) as Ibrahim, Arayn (10C) as Ismail, Adnan (10B) as Ibrahim in the dream, and Aiz (10E) as Iblees — each delivering their role with quiet conviction.

A soulful rendition of “Rahmatun Lil Alameen” by the student choir, accompanied on piano by Jacob (8C), added depth to the occasion.

Principal Fr Johnson L Sequeira commended the students and vice principal Anita Thomas, noting the dignity and meaning embedded in the assembly. The programme concluded with the school anthem.

The assembly was gracefully anchored by Shazil and Iqra of class 10A.
