BENGALURU: After almost two years of offline classes, schools are bustling with children after reopening today for the 2022-23 academic year. This year, schools have reopened 15 days early for bridge courses to overcome learning gaps.

A festive atmosphere prevailed on campuses across the state as children were welcomed with sweets and roses. In some places, students were welcomed with ‘arati’ by teachers.

The Nagashettyhalli government school in Bengaluru was decorated with flowers, festoons and rangoli. Teachers welcomed the students with sweets, roses, pens and masks. In Hebbal, children were welcomed with ‘arati’ and sweets. An awareness programme on school enrolment was also conducted.
