The programme commenced with a welcome speech by one of the students of SANGEETHA. It was then followed by a Bharata Natyam dance with exquisite quality. The cinematic dances were also of professional quality.
The programme also featured a display of video clips that described the charity work undertaken by SAHAJEEVAN- an organisation supported by SANGEETHA OF THE UK. This has evoked
a sympathetic response from the audience and Mr Malcolm Wicks and other councillors praised

Music rendered by the famous singers and the subsequent DJ have made the day highly a memorable one.

As the day was highly auspicious, especially for students, SANGEETHA OF THE UK decided that students who achieved outstanding achievements in their studies should be honoured. Accordingly, Miss Anju Jacob who secured fourteen A Star grades in her GCSE and Miss
Ponnambalam who came second with twelve A Star grades were given the gifts.
