HRH Gyalsey’s Birthday Celebration

Ugyen Academy family joins the nation in celebrating HRH Gyalsey’s 1^st birth anniversary. It is indeed a very special moment for all Bhutanese as the country received its jewel on the very day. In celebrating the auspicious day, Ugyen Academy family initiated small yet beautiful programs.

The celebration commenced with Lungta Sangchoe and lighting of butter lamps at the Chhoekhang. The little feet had already made the biggest footprints in the hearts of people and so did the inspirational speech given by the Principal ignite the light during the morning assembly. The entire school then chanted the solemn prayer (Zhabten) dedicated to HRH Gyalsey and Their Majesties.

In addition, the jewel of the school, the youngest member of Ugyen Academy family planted Jangchhub Shing in dedication to HRH Gyalsey. Students made meaningful pledges in the name of HRH Gyalsey aiming at improving their character, personality and performances.

Later in the afternoon, students displayed their skills and keen interest through basketball and futsal matches.  In the evening, lighting of butter lamp and cake cutting ceremony was held followed by the most entertaining cultural program. Not a single face was left without a smile; smile of satisfaction, love, integrity and togetherness. Happiness is not bought but born.

UA family prays for the long live of Their Majesties and HRH Gyalsey. May the kingdom of Bhutan and its people know no bounds of merit and wisdom for these are the attributes in maintaining peace and happiness.
