The highlight of the programme was a skit on \u201c200 Years of the Eternal Flame,\u201d presented by two students of Class IX and three students of Class VI. Through their enthusiastic and meaningful performance, the students portrayed the journey of St. Joaquina\u2019s charism and how the flame of her faith, love and service continues to shine through generations. The skit was well appreciated by everyone present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The students of Class VI also presented the hymn \u201cYou Know That Now\u201d in honour of St. Joaquina, expressing their love and gratitude for our beloved Foundress. Sr. Mary John, ccv, shared an inspiring message, highlighting the important values of St. Joaquina\u2014love, joy, faithfulness, trust in God\u2019s Providence, compassion and service\u2014and encouraged the students to embody these values in their daily lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A student of Class II delivered a short and meaningful speech on Mother Joaquina, followed by the Thought for the Day, presented by the Class II students through a maxim of St. Joaquina. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The celebration at Fatima Convent Public School was a joyful and prayerful reminder that, even after 200 years, the eternal flame of St. Joaquina\u2019s charism continues to burn brightly. The programme concluded with gratitude and a renewed commitment to carry forward her legacy of faith, love and service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Fatima
