School-1


I miss my school more than anything…..of course my school life would be complete only with my friends, teachers and the Principal of those days. I have studied in two schools. In a Christian missionary school, St.Theresa’s Convent School in Bhopal (M.P) till my 10th and after that 2 years in Amrita Vidyalayam in Kerala. Life in both the schools was absolutely different.
My first school was a strict and extremely disciplined school. However strict it was, it was never rigid. It is there that I learned my values which I still hold fast (as much is humanly possible).It is there that I got the habit of being popular in school. The school made me believe in excellence and I still do. The school shaped my relationship tasks, it taught me independence, it taught me the smile and let go attitude…….It taught me so many things that it would be difficult to list everything the school gave and taught. Above all the School gave me the best years in my life.
Its said that a child’s most important developmental tasks are reinforced in school. Only a good and efficient school can aid in the balanced and timely development of a child. I am really grateful to my School for being everything I could ever expect from a School. It is because of my school that I bloomed into what I am now.
My second school was quite different from my first school……but no less colorful. About my experiences in that school…..I will soon post it.
