Jamshedi Navroze Celebration at BVS

Wednesday 20th March, 2024.

Keeping the tradition of setting the “Haft-e-seen” table at the Bai Virbaiji Soparivala Parsi High School alive, the Zoroastrian staff and students welcomed “The year of the Blue Whale” by laying a lavish table arrangement of the seven symbolic items whose names start with the letter “seen” of the Persian alphabet. The table also had many other items that celebrate Spring and Ahura Mazda’s gift to us.

However, our level of happiness was increased      two- fold with the arrival of Mr. Jose Antonio de Ory Ambassador of Spain accompanied by Ms. Spenta Kandawalla and her graceful daughter. Mr. Jose exhibited a keen interest in each of the items displayed on the table especially the Holy Book “Khordeh Avesta”. He also savored the traditional delicacies laid out and took a round of our 165 years old institution.

Nowruz Pirooz to all.
