KUMARDUBI:LOYOLA SCHOOL,
TALDANGA PREPARED FOR THE WORLD
23rd March, 2013
marked the Graduation Ceremony for the ISC 2013 batch. It was a day filled with
joy. The outgoing students for the last time sang the School Song and lit their
candles from the flame held by their respective class teachers. We believe that
this flame will illuminate their lives always.
The Chief Guest for the evening was
Rev.Fr.George Fernandez, Director – De Nobili Schools.
The Chief Guest gave a very inspiring
message. He said, “Make your GOAL to transform the World, but first transform
yourself.” This is true Education. Fr. Edward, our Principal quoted Shiv Khera-
“I don’t want your Honours, I want Honour.” His message to the Graduates was
‘Live with Honour and Success will come to you.’ All the students of the
out-going batch were given a token in remembrance of their school life. The toppers of the Science and Commerce
sections were awarded Certificates for Academic Excellence. The students with
100% attendance were also awarded.
Parents, Guests, teachers,
students had refreshment and spent some time together. Finally it was time to
bid adieu. (Rita Sen)
ST. XAVIER’S ENGLISH
SCHOOL, CHAIBASA
The school remained closed from 27th
March till 1st April on account of Holi and the Holy Week.
On 3rd April, we had ‘left
and Right Handwriting’ competitions for classes I to X. It is a very effective
exercise to trigger both parts of our brain. It is fun to do and it has far
-reaching consequences as a child can perform more efficiently with both sides
of his brain activated.
There was an orientation program for the
teachers on 5th and 6th April. Our resource person was
Fr. Ajit Xess, the Principal of St. Xavier’s School, Doranda. He spoke about
how a happy teacher can influence the life of a child. He also spoke on various
topics, i.e. positive climate in the classroom, all round development of an
individual, etc.
Classes for LKG started on 8th
April. It was a joy to see them entering the school for the first time, which
is a door to the world of infinite knowledge.
Parents’ – Teachers’ Meet started on 8th
April and continued till 12th April. Different classes had their
Parents’- Teachers’ Meet on different days. Various points related to syllabus
were discussed. Parents were given information about the new marking-scheme,
dance & music classes, karate classes etc.
The school mourns the loss of one of our
most esteemed benefactors Late Ashok Kumar Jain, whose untimely demise on 12th
April is a severe blow to the whole mankind. Special prayer was conducted on 13th
April for his eternal repose.
Remedial classes for the weak students
started on 15th April. We have some very talented students who are
very dextrous in playing with words. To allow them to show their linguistic
skills, we had a story writing competition on 17th April for the
students of std VI to VIII. It was compulsory for everyone to participate and
the students’ response was very good.
