Bangalore:  Pearson Schools, today announced the successful culmination of their inter-school Independence Day cultural fest – ‘TIRANGAA 2013’. The theme this year was “Indian Railways – One India” and was held across all 35 Pearson Schools in the country.

‘TIRANGAA’ was conceptualized by Pearson Schools after extensive brain mapping to enable the company to meet the growing demands of tapping the hidden talent in each child. The platform allows for children to exhibit the best of their talent in Art in their respective age groups.

All the festive Independence Day decorations across all Pearson Schools campuses added fun, charm and fervour to the atmosphere. Encompassing several unique competitions such as Colouring competition, Fancy Dress competition, Recitation, story-telling and much more, TIRANGAA was a refreshing take on celebrating India’s 66th year of independence.
