Twenty-three schools under the aegis of the BIRDS (Brihanmumbai Interschool Republic Day Committee) came together to celebrate Republic Day with a spectacular parade at Bandra Bandstand. Schools from all over Mumbai marched to the beat of different school bands. St. Stanislaus High School, which has the only NCC squad in Bandra, was represented by the NCC cadets of the school.
