Teachers Day: Gratitude pours in for teachers, mentors

To mark Teacher’s Day which is also the birth anniversary of Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, an Indian philosopher and the second President of India, the teachers of New Horizon Scholars School, Thane participated in the cultural function ‘Udaan’.

The multilingual programme was a beautiful blend of the teachers and students.

Teachers from the primary section presented a plethora of songs, while students danced to ‘Gurur Brahma Gurur Vishnu’ for their teachers. The event began with chanting a shloka and the virtual lighting of the lamp and prayer, followed by recital of a poem on teachers.

The students presented an array of performances including Odissi dance, musical medley, speeches, comic skit among others to show their appreciation of their teachers while the teachers returned their love through various events .

Regional director Dr Jyoti Nair said, “Teachers have proved once again that it is their ‘Udaan’ as the name for the programme aptly suggested that they will fly to lands of fantasies. No crisis is big enough to fight the indomitable spirit of a teacher, who doesn’t shy from her responsibilities because she knows her spirit will enliven thousands and those thousands will motivate and inspire thousands more and the journey continues.”
