“You can’t buy happiness but you can buy books and that’s kind of the same thing”.
The “LCS Library Week” was celebrated from 18th to 22nd November 2019, an occasion created with the hope of reigniting the passion for reading in young minds. The week started off with an assembly on Monday which had Jagrithi Shetty of Class 10 talking about the importance of books in our lives.

It started off with the prayer and an adorable performance by the students of class 5 reciting the library poem. A dance was performed by the students of class 8 that was a visual treat. Prizes were distributed to the winners of the competition that took place during the week.
