The much-awaited KHOJ Night captured this very spirit. The theme of Khoj embraced Panchatantra’s timeless wisdom, where animal tales inspire courage, harmony, wit, compassion and enduring moral clarity.The campus transformed into a colourful wonderland, alive with decorations, twinkling lights and an air of anticipation. Children arrived bubbling with energy, ready to explore the exciting evening ahead. The night was designed to keep every student engaged, happy and active — through games, creative activities, performances and challenges that sparked imagination and teamwork.Indoor activities such as thumbprint poster-making, “Who Knows Me,” and photo frame creation encouraged creativity and collaboration, while outdoor games like Musical Hat, Treasure Hunt, Spin the Wheel and Dance Relays had children running, jumping and laughing with uncontainable joy.

Stall games like Polka Dot Toss, Find the Ball, Feed the Clown and Rocket Blast kept everyone on their toes, blending fun with focus, strategy and cheerful competition. Every game, every challenge and every giggle became a lesson — in friendship, patience, problem-solving and confidence — delivered in the purest and most joyful way. Adding to the magic, teachers performed lively skits, dances and a surprise magic show, spreading laughter and conveying lessons in cooperation, honesty and resilience. The teachers’ energetic dance performance especially thrilled the students, who cheered wildly at the playful, unexpected moments from their mentors. Following dinner, the nostalgic photo collages of their early school years brought smiles and quiet reflection, celebrating growth, memories and the bonds that make DPS Patna a home away from home. Later, the movie screening became one of the night’s most enjoyed highlights — the hilarious, warm-hearted film ‘Dunston Checks In’ filled the hall with laughter. The morning began with a refreshing yoga drill and energizing exercises, thoughtfully designed by the HPE department to relax, refresh and prepare young minds for a new day. Stretching, breathing and moving in harmony, the children embraced the routine with enthusiasm, leaving them calm, focused and ready. After a wholesome breakfast, the morning assembly applauded their discipline, participation and team spirit, leaving every child proud, motivated and smiling.

KHOJ Night at DPS Patna was more than an event; it was a celebration of life, learning, and friendship. It reminded everyone that education thrives on curiosity, joy and engagement — that lessons learned through laughter linger longest and that every child shines brightest when given the freedom to explore, imagine and participate wholeheartedly. As the campus echoed with cheers, footsteps and carefree giggles, one truth beautifully stood out: these are the moments of childhood that stay in the heart forever.
