This celebration is a testament to our community’s strength and our children’s potential.

The spirit of Christmas filled every corner of Taarana School during its much-anticipated annual Christmas and Family Day Celebration. As is tradition, this joyous event united students, parents, families, and special guests for a memorable day filled with festivity, fun, and togetherness, perfectly capturing the season’s true spirit.

The day began on a tuneful note with a carolling session led by cherished friends of Taarana, the Pereira family. Their heartfelt renditions of Christmas classics set the tone for a day of warmth and cheer.

Our young guests from the Shelter Home for Children added to the festivities, singing carols and enthusiastically participating in the day’s activities, beautifully highlighting the spirit of inclusion and community.

The air buzzed with excitement as attendees dove into various lively station games. Children and their families carefully balanced balls on planks, concentrating intently before dropping them into baskets, while others worked together to guide marbles through winding plastic pipes with precision. Musical chairs stole the show with laughter and cheers as kids dashed and scrambled for the final seat in a flurry of fun.

Parents also had their moment in the spotlight with a rapid-fire Christmas trivia game. Competing to hit the bell first, they showcased their holiday knowledge with a quick wit and plenty of humour, earning hearty cheers from the crowd.

The day’s highlight was dazzling dances by Taarana’s students. Their medley of Christmas carols brought the audience to its feet, clapping to the season’s rhythms. The energy and enthusiasm they exuded were a testament to their confidence and joy, leaving everyone in awe.

The event was not just about Christmas but a reflection of Taarana’s unwavering commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive community and each family’s dedication to their neurodiverse stars!

Dr Sunitha Sivakumaran, the Principal of Taarana, shared, “Seeing our students, families, and friends come together with such joy and enthusiasm reminds us that inclusion is not just a value – it’s the heart of everything we do at Taarana.

“This celebration is a testament to our community’s strength and our children’s incredible potential.”

As the celebration ended, the smiles and laughter reflected a well-spent day. The Taarana community once again demonstrated the magic of coming together, reminding all that the holiday season is about more than festivities – it’s about unity, love, and the simple joy of being together.
