The Khaitan School Noida organized a Foreign Exchange Programme with France on 12th April, 2019. Nine students of ‘Sainte Marie Bastide’ School Bordeaux, France along with their teachers Monsieur Frederic Tabbi and Monsieur Benjamin Guerin were given a warm Indian welcome by the students of TKS. They were hosted by Indian Families who made them feel comfortable and welcomed. They were mesmerized by a raag based song presented by the school choir and a Kathak performance by TKS students. Education Director Mrs. S.L.Gupta and Principal Mrs. D. Kaur graced the occasion. Students and teachers of both schools shared their experience and highlighted the importance of such programmes in developing friendship and fraternity between the two countries. Later the French students interacted with TKS students which enabled them to learn more about our rich Indian culture, music and art forms. The French group enjoyed a fun- filled tour to Taj Mahal, the epitome of Love.
