The invincible combination of games, fun and food made D.A.V Public School, Aundh’s food fest an ultimate hit among the students and parents of the school. The early and interact rotary clubs of the school had organized a fund raiser for all food lovers across the city. Under the guidance of Pankaj Malhotra, the director of Youth services Rotary club, central Pune and leadership of Radhika, a teacher of the School, a fest was hosted having over 17 food stalls and 12 game stalls.


The variety of items such as sandwich, missal pav, pani puri, bisibele bhat, butter milk, various juices etc available at the fest were all made by parents of students of class first to seventh. The pre primary teachers took charge of the distribution of coupons and also held small stalls of artifacts. Alongside the fest, a small book fair was also arranged by scholastic. This fest acted as an inspiration to teachers of various other schools who intend o co-work with Rotary, Pune and organize such fests in their schools as well.

The game stalls had various games in which innumerable parents and students participated. To boost the enthusiasm of the participants’ small gifts were given away to the winners of each game. The most successful game was the small version of bowling, where each player had to pin all the glasses arranged in the form of a pyramid in one chance using a small tennis ball. There were many other game stalls as well, that attracted attention of the children. The food stalls were set up in a very attractive manner by the teachers and students of the school. Parents too, contributed significantly in making this fest a huge success.

When asked the principal Jayshree Venkatraman about where is money was going to be used she said that the money will be used for the noble cause of overall development of underprivileged children. She added that the school has partially adopted one such organization and sends some amount of money to it every month. With money being used for such a noble cause, the keenness among teachers, students and parents could not be matched.
