The Language Tree Display activity encouraged students to celebrate linguistic diversity by writing words from their mother tongues on leaf-shaped paper cutouts. These colourful leaves symbolized the branches of India’s linguistic heritage.
Students expressed themselves through poetry and music, performing songs in Bengali, Telugu, Odia, and Hindi. The activity demonstrated how music and poetry transcend linguistic barriers.
Students explored the linguistic roots of various Indian festivals, sharing short introductions about customs, rituals, and traditions. They highlighted how festivals like Pongal, Durga Puja, and Rath Yatra are deeply connected to regional dialects and expressions. Additionally, students recorded podcasts in different Bharatiya Bhasha, presenting proverbs from their regions.
Teachers paired students from diverse linguistic backgrounds to exchange greetings, proverbs, and everyday expressions in their respective Bharatiya Bhasha. The activity not only built linguistic awareness but also strengthened interpersonal connections. Apart from this, the students also wrote proverbs in their mother tongues as they shared them with the rest of the class.
Students participated in a creative storytelling chain using Panchatantra tales. One student began narrating a story in a particular Bharatiya Bhasha, and others continued the tale in different languages.
Students enthusiastically participated in the Language Exploration Club, where they discovered the richness of regional languages through engaging activities. They solved riddles, attempted tongue twister challenges, and enjoyed storytelling sessions that highlighted cultural nuances.
The last day of the Bharatiya Bhasha Utsav 2025 concluded with a skit performance based on a Tenali Rama story. The students enacted the witty tale in Telugu, blending humour with cultural richness.
