As part of the **Rakhi celebrations** at **Gillco International School**, our students took part in a heartwarming initiative to honour the **brave Indian soldiers** who stand guard at our borders.

In a beautiful display of creativity and gratitude, students designed **handmade rakhis** on the theme **‘Tiranga’**, symbolizing the values of **courage, unity, and sacrifice** reflected in our national flag. Each rakhi served as a small token of love and appreciation for the real-life heroes who protect our nation selflessly.

Adding to this meaningful tribute, students also engaged in a **letter writing activity**, pouring their thoughts and heartfelt messages into words. These letters, filled with respect and emotion, expressed their admiration and gratitude to our soldiers, turning the celebration of **Raksha Bandhan** into a deeply patriotic experience.

Together, these activities fostered a strong sense of **national pride**, empathy, and the true essence of **Raksha Bandhan** — the promise of protection and gratitude.

*Rakhis tied with threads of love, letters written from the heart.*
