Dear Principals of eminent schools/colleges of the world.
Greetings and best wishes from City Montessori School, Aliganj Campus I, Lucknow.
Established in 1959 with just five students, City Montessori School has grown into the world's largest school by pupil enrollment, holding a Guinness World Record with over 62,000 students. We are also proud recipients of the 2002 UNESCO Prize for Peace Education.
We are delighted to invite your school to participate in the 14th International Cultural Competition, CELESTA. This biennial event promotes cross-cultural interaction through a series of competitions in music, dance, and art, attracting entries from around the globe and across India.
CELESTA was conceived to preserve our rich cultural heritage amidst the tide of modernization, which threatens to erode traditional forms of culture and art. This four-day cultural fiesta offers a platform to celebrate and preserve these traditions.
We extend a special welcome to the Principals of invited schools. Priority will be given to teams accompanied by their Principals, who will be honored as our special “Guests of Honour.” The Principal's presence is not required as a team leader but as a distinguished guest.
We look forward to your participation in CELESTA International, where the beauty of cultural exchange will unfold day by day.
Mrs. Jyoti Kashyap
Convenor, Celesta International & Senior Principal, CMS Aliganj Campus I
