“Positive thinking is not about EXPECTING the BEST to happen. It’s about ACCEPTING that whatever happens, it’s for the BEST.”
There is so much positive energy all around us…so much to be grateful for. The Board examination has come to an end and we have had the Divine seminars of all the sections: we are celebrating the students’ success and the happiness on their faces is the reward of our teachers’ hard work and guidance. With the commencement of the new session, we have renewed our pledge to strain every nerve to provide our dear students the best educational experiences that they are entitled to. It was indeed a surreal moment for me as I read out the accomplishments of our prodigious youngsters and let me assure you dear parents, you have given us the lights of your lives, we will transform them into lighthouses of society and the world at large. We have been incorporating new pedagogical techniques and constantly redefining and revamping our educational system. Dear Parents, it is our humble request to you to cater to your wards’ mental health also. We are trying our level best to provide our students with an enabling environment and happy classrooms so that they acquire life skills in a stress-free manner. I would like to thank you all for your conscientious parenting and cooperation. True freedom is impossible without a mind made free by discipline. It is expected of each child to abide by the rules and regulations of the institution. Our united resolve will go a long way in inculcating a sense of discrimination and righteousness in our students. This edition will provide you new insights on the life-enriching activities going on in our campus and the training sessions being organised for our teachers’ professional growth. We look forward to a new academic session in which we will set higher benchmarks of excellence and give our students such experiences that will enhance their selfworth and self-esteem.
