At 8.00am on Friday 4th Sept 2015, the students of Divine Child High School & Junior College, Andheri (E), began the day by giving praise and thanks to God for the gift of our mentors and guides – our teachers. The hour long prayer service invoking the presence of God and His blessings on our teachers was followed by felicitation by the students of their respective teachers in the classrooms.
At 10.00am the students and teachers in each of the classrooms, were attuned to the monitor displaying the speech of our Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi from Manekshaw Centre in New Delhi and his interactions with students from schools in New Delhi and through satellite with students of other states, too.
The programme which lasted for almost 2 hours was interesting. He spoke about his experiences, Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam and the role of a teacher. The gist of his speech included requesting the HRD Ministry to replace the ritualistic exercise of awarding ‘Character Certificates’ with awards of ‘Aptitude Certificates’ to students; he asked the students to develop leadership qualities and not to get deterred by failure.
