Khoj, the annual night camp at Delhi Public School Pune, held on November 16–17, 2024, was a delightful journey of self-discovery and camaraderie. This year’s theme, The Cultural Heritage of Maharashtra, transformed the campus into a vibrant space. The Maharashtrian-themed decorations of Warli art was apt for the occasion. The children, adorned in traditional phetas, were greeted by the Head of School, Ms. Amita Singh. Musical performances by the Performing Arts Department such as Abhaangs and Natya Geet set a festive tone.

The students explored rooms showcasing Maharashtra’s forts and art forms, followed by an assembly featuring a tableau planned by the teachers, which was in the form of a play depicting the history and traditions of Maharashtra along with traditional dances like Lezim and the rich musical culture of Maharashtra was highlighted. Evening activities included games like Lingorcha, High Five and Reflections. After a scrumptious dinner, the children danced to foot-tapping music which was the evening's high point.  Later, the children enjoyed "Back to Memory Lane," a presentation featuring photographs from their first day of school as 4-year-olds to their senior most class in the junior wing.  The day concluded with a movie on kindness.

The next morning began with music, yoga, and a refreshing walk. Ms. Amita Singh thanked the teachers and staff for their efforts and motivated the students with an inspiring speech.
