KUWAIT: The Indian Community School Kuwait (ICSK) was all set to welcome its students back after a long break, as the school resumed fully for the first time after two years, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The campus sported a celebratory appearance, as students took the walk through the welcome corridor created by the teachers and led by the head of the institution, Dr. V. Binumon, Principal of ICSK Senior. In line with the school's tradition, the children were welcomed with cards and sweets at the school gate and the presence of cartoon characters, Dora and Mickey, added to the entertainment. Many students shared their experience of being back at school, in an on-the spot interview.

He spoke at length about the significance of the summer program, Flora Snap, an environmental awareness event where trees would be planted, requesting the students to make the program a great success. This was followed by a song by the school choir, Swaranjali. The students spent the rest of the day interacting with their teachers and friends while the classes resumed, as planned.
