After a rejuvenating break of almost two months, one is back to wake up to incessant honking of school buses, kids foraging in the house for that lost pair of socks, parents frantically running with tffins and water bottles and managing to get the little uniform-clad kids ready just in time.
Sleepy eyes struggle to register the first lesson of the day and those five minutes before the teacher enters prove to be more productive than 60 days for completing holiday homework.
School indeed is the paramount phase in one's academic life.It teaches everything, from the ABCs of the alphabet to the ABCs of life. For that matter, the primary school is of utmost importance. The structure of academics in the years to follow is based on the strength of the fundamentals. Also, values learned during this time are what a student carries for an entire lifetime! Thus, schools must shift from a banal 'academic result oriented' approach to a more 'thought-enabling and morally enhancing' one.
Hence I feel immensely proud of having been a part of such a school for over 12 years! No amount of exposure, learning or even fun equals that we had in school. Clearly, 'our minds were without fear'!
P.S. This is the oldest class photograph I could find. The transition in faces is unbelievable!
