Holi Celebration 2017 - see video link

Thanks so much for participating in Vidyalaya Holi celebration last weekend and for rocking the school with Holi masti. It was cloudy 62 degrees but surprisingly it felt just perfect as there was no breeze. Holi never fails to live up to its spiritied fun-filled expectations. Hot samosas, dhokla, jalebi and drinks topped off the experience nicely. This year Gopi Krishna Thati from GKTVusa captured the essence of the event in a video, here is the link:
