SCHOOL LIFE

“Child is the father of man” so goes a saying in English. It is 100% true without doubt. Home is the first school and teachers are the second set of parents. We, at Samuel Public School, provide the same homely atmosphere at school. Our Pre-primary section is the feeder school for higher sections. We decided to conduct “Kids Convocation” for our tiny tots.

Sports – “Sound mind in sound body” is an oft repeated saying in English. It is particularly true in case of our students who pay equal importance to the development of both brain and brawn. Our children take part in both intra school and inter – school corn petitions on a regular basis’. They excel not only in academics but also in sports and games.

Lord Krishna an incarnation of Lord Vishnu is the most favourite god of children in our country. He is known for his childish pranks. The Pre- Primary and Lower Primary children dressed like Lord Krishna captivated the audience. The flute and peacock feather are trademarks of the Lord. They took us back to Dwapara Yuga.

The birthday of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan which falls on 5th September is commemorated as “Teachers Day”. He was the first Vice – President and the second President of our country and was a renowned scholar in several subjects but Philosophy was his favourite subject. He had 57 University degrees to his credit.

“Raksha Bandhan” is basically a north Indian festival but it is being celebrated in the southern parts of the country nowadays. It is a day on which girls and women tie “rakhee” on the wrists of boys and men. It symbolises brother – sister relationship. Men offer to protect the women and they in turn pray for the well being of men. It promotes a spirit of camaraderie among the boys and girls.

Children of our Pre- primary section took part in the fancy dress competition, masquerading as freedom fighters and replicated their words and deeds on the stage. They brought alive the freedom fighters who gave up their lives to set us free from the British rule. Children of Higher Primary and High School sections sang patriotic songs.
