After a little while, they reached the school!

Je: Ey! Ellam avenghe avenghe class ku poirunghe! Eppothum pole.....ingeye ellarum school mudinju wait pannunghe!

All nodded Yes! Each one bidding goodbye and went into their classrooms!

After some time....all the students were gathered at once at the school hall! Parents started coming!

And the show started! Class by class some representatives came one after one to perform!

It started from the young ones!

Kanna's class group came in first! Kanna was among them!

They were singing some tamil rhymes together! Kanna sang one solo song in between the group!

The family....Murugan Appa, Kumeresan Mama, Lakshmi Amma and Parvathy Amma was clapping and cheering from down!

Even the brothers and his Mullai Anni were somewhere near the stage happily watching this little one performing so bravely up there!

After some other performances.....

Some beautiful girls came up the stage! The teacher were setting up mics and getting them ready to perform!

And there was our Beauty !

All the girls especially Mullai seemed so tensed up!

She was searching for the family! Murugan Appa noticed this.....

Mu: Ada nambe Mulla!

He stood up and thumbs up at her! Kumeresan Mama too stood up and cheered her up! She was elacted!

Yet there was this little fear in her!

Then a little sound from in front of the stage calling her name! She looked a little down!

It was....

M (mindvoice): Aik! Mama! (Her face was brightened up)

Yeah! It was.....Her.....Kathir Mama!

He was smiling towards her!

K: (in a small voice) Bayapadathe! Paadu Mulla! Naan inge than iruken!

She smiled broad! She got a little confident in herself!

In a few seconds.....the girls begin.....

The girls just nailed it!

Then it was Kathir's class' turn!

Kumeresan Mama was so elacted! He stood up and cheered with his name!

Kathir smiled broad at the family! Mullai and Kanna who have performed were sitting at the front row was clapping a little louder! He saw them and was more happier!

It was a group dance! And yeah....Kathir was the lead Dancer!

That thuruthuru child Kathir was at lit on the stage! All praised Kathir after then!

Then it was the senior group! Jeeva was in it! A drama was acted out! Jeeva played a vital role! All the family members were astonished after seeing the new dimension of Jeeva who was good at acting at this age!

The show then was continued with prize giving ceremony!

All those performed were given some trophies as appreciation! And one person from each group was given a best performer!

Surprisingly.....all the Pandian Stores varisungala were among them! Yeah! Kanna....for his brave solo performance....Kathir the best Dancer, Mullai the best Singer and Jeeva the best Actor!

The Family was so much in an emotional feel seeing this!

Then the function was over! Parents started going out of the hall! But the students were not send out yet!

It was then the photo session! All the students, teachers took photos together!

After a decent photo session, the cameraman called....

CM: Yaarukelam thanniya photo edukenumo vaange vaange!

Students were very happy!

Group by groups....Friends gangs....and many more pictures......

Mullai was excited too! She called both her Mamas and Kanna and they took a picture with their trophies proudly!

Then, all went back to their own gangs again! Capturing moments with them again!

After a while....

Mullai went searching for Kathir....and found him with his friends.....

She shouted from far.....

M: Kathiruhhhhh!

He was shocked! Got excused from his friends and went near her!

K: Adipaaavi! Per kupde sonnalum sonnum....athukunu ippediya katthuvu!

After some time......all started to move out of the hall! As promised to Jeeva, every one of them gathered at the entrance and somewhere there, the Family was waiting too! Each other praising and happily went back home together!
