Your talent is God’s gift to you. What
you do with it is your gift back to God.

– Leo Buscaglia

Talents are mental strengths that are useful to
a pursuit, art, profession, activity or task.
These include innate abilities that come
naturally to an individual and abilities that
have resulted from learning, development and
disciplined practice.

On 15th November learners of Grades IX
showcased their talents in diverse fields like
singing, dancing, culinary arts, photography,
calligraphy, instrumental music, sketching,
painting, mandala art, poem writing and
game designing to name a few. Learners also
showcased the SEWA Activities performed
by them during this session.

Lotus Lights offered our learners another
opportunity to display their inventiveness,
skilfulness and brilliance. Their diligence,
commitment, collaboration and resilience
resonated with Lotus Valley School's vision
of a promising future for the nation.
