Description:
Johnians brought cheer to the Christmas season by initiating yet another community programme, ‘A FISTFUL OF RICE’. The idea was given by one of our very own Johnians. The recently concluded 'Just Fair' for the marginalized, had enthused the students tremendously and they heartily came forward for this drive.
The whole school along with the alumni, SJOBA, came together and collected a 1000 kgs of rice!! Boys brought a fistful of uncooked rice from home and collected rice to give to the poor. This will go a long way to feed the hungry.
It has been gifted to the organisation that prepares free food for the attendants of patients at the PGI and GMCH32.
The school has always lived by the motto, ‘In giving we receive’.
The Principal, Mrs. Kavita C Das, expressed her heartfelt gratitude to the boys and alumni for making the Christmas season of giving a reality.
