The dates above are fixed dates that have been observed on the same day for many years. Some observances are not on a fixed date and are announced each year, such as Road Safety Week or Month and Vigilance Awareness Week. For those, follow the circular your school or office receives, and use our road safety slogans when the time comes.
How to prepare for a slogan day
- A week before: read the circular for the year's theme, if there is one. Many days have a new theme each year, and a slogan that matches it scores higher.
- Five days before: shortlist three slogans from the topic page, or write your own with our guide. Hindi-medium students can use नारा लेखन.
- Three days before: sketch the poster in pencil on rough paper. Decide the one picture.
- Two days before: letter the chart, colour it, and check every spelling.
- On the day: if there is a rally or assembly, see slogans for rallies and morning assembly.
Days with no fixed slogan page
Any topic can be given on any day. These pages are not tied to a date and are asked for all year round: cleanliness, no plastic, clean air, road safety, cyber safety, kindness and anti-bullying, school elections and business taglines.
A note on dates
We list only days whose dates we are sure of. If your school diary or an official circular gives a different date or a special week for a subject, follow that.
