Almost every school holds a prize day to distribute prizes among the students. The last prize day of our school was held on 2nd April last year on the school compound. We decorated the school building very tastefully. Green leaves, flags and fastoons were freely used to enhance the beauty of the school. A big pandal was erected to hold the function. There were two neatly decorated tables on which the prizes and medals were arranged in proper order. On one side was a nicely carpeted platform from where the speeches were delivered. There was also a victory stand from where the recipients received their prizes and medals. The president's chair and table were placed in the middle with flower pots and bouquets of roses . The function began just at 10 am. The invited guests began to come in. The volunteers received them cordially.
The T. N. O. was in the chair. He arrived at the gate just a few minutes before the ceremony was due to commence. The students offered him the gaurd of honour. The Headmaster, some teachers and some distinguished persons gave him a rousing ovation and conducted him to the seat of honour.
The formal ceremony began with the recitation from the Holy Quran. Then the Headmaster read out his report which showed all round improvement of the school. Then the main ceremony began. The Headmaster called each recipient by name and the president gave away the prizes. Finally the president rose to speak. He delivered his speech. He congratulated the institution, the teachers and the him to the seat of honour (সম্মানের আসনে). students. He gave the students valuable advice.
The function then came to a close with the customary vote of thanks. The memory of the day is still fresh in my mind.
