SUMMER VACATION

Dear Children,

I know how eagerly each one of you is waiting for the first day of the summer vacation to dawn so that you may be able to get over the monotony that has probably set in your life owing to uninterrupted hours of slogging for academic enhancement.

There is no doubt that this summer vacation is like an elixir for a student who keeps waiting for the commencement of summer vacation during which he/she can chill himself or herself to the utmost extent of satiation. One thing which however has not to be side tracked is the focus on your goal i.e. to listen to the most thrilling rhythm of your heart which wants you to do something which is your forte or USP (Unique Selling Point) and which if you can truly answer, the world is yours and you can be its de facto (actual) ruler.

We have quite often heard about brain-drain i.e. flow of talent from a developing country to a developed country but what we have not heard quite often is internal brain-drain which refers to flow of talent from an area of specialty to an area of mediocrity just because of peer pressure or parental force or sometimes even social pressures being exerted on you. Don’t forget one thing that in order to answer the call of internal rhythm you have to cross many hurdles and over come many barriers. There are umpteen number of examples which history is replete with where in order to reach their goal people have had to exhibit a great degree of grit and guts and a never say die spirit. To become 24 carrot gold, it has to pass through extreme heat but then it becomes so valuable that even if it is lying on a heap of garbage it has the same unfailing glint and unmistakable glow.

Education is not all about gorging facts and disgorging them on paper without even an iota of change in its presentation. It is formation not information which you need to emphasize on. Formation of mind i.e. cognitive ability not ability of retention of information that is an essential ingredient of success in the long run of life. It is not the marks which guarantee your success but your skill to handle a situation which calls for a great degree of common sense, alacrity of mind and clarity of vision. Enjoy every moment of your life and relish the delectable flavour of the journey and not its destination because success lies not in the end of the journey rather in the journey itself. Hope you will be back in school in the first week of July as rejuvenated and recharged human beings.

Happy Vacation…

Resolution for the Session 2012-13

The session 2011-12 came to a successful end with a lot of achievements, accolades and great opportunities for learning and reforming and transforming ourselves. Over and above it was an academic session of great transformation in many domains particularly in our attitude which always acts as trigger for any change.

The academic session 2012-13 has many good things in store for us. We are going to work with more dedication, commitment, zeal and enthusiasm. We are going to be more focused on our goal and resolve unflinchingly and unwaveringly to translate our dreams into reality. It will be possible only when we make a proper schedule and utilize every second at our disposal. We have to make sure that we are in proper uniform, with well polished shoes, handkerchief in pocket and have in our possession our lunch box, water bottle and the school diary unfailingly.

As we have quite often discussed that education is not training for livelihood or even for life, it’s rather life itself. So let us learn to live every moment of our student life with passion. If we keep the fire element always ablaze in us, no opportunity may wriggle out of our hand.  

Our school life is the most essential part of our childhood and if we truly understand the seriousness of these formative periods of our life, our entire persona may have a facelift. There is no denying the fact that the best opportunities for progress and flourishment knock our door during our school life. Many attend them and grab hold of the opportunity but some, out of sheer laziness, lethargy or lack of will power fail to let the auto ignition button, inbuilt in us, press itself as a result of which throughout our life we have to expiate and atone for.  

It is not necessary for everyone to reach the pinnacle or zenith of academic brilliance but it is quite imperative for everyone to call his/her best shot. In other words there is no one on this earth who has not been endowed with one or the other specialty by God. What we have to do is just to detect that domain of specialty and polish the same to perfection. Once we have detected our special ability, we have not to stop or rest on our laurels. We have to go on and on in life till God’s intervention and closure of the final chapter of our life.
