“Courtesy costs nothing but buys everything."

Courtesy is a noble virtue in a person's life. A courteous person can bring success and earn friends.

From June 12th till 17th2023 our school commemorated “Courtesy Week ”during which the art of politeness, good manners and punctuality was highlighted in interactions between the students.

The students from grade VIII created a brief assembly with the assistance of their teachers.

The programme commenced with a meaningful prayer service invoking blessings from Almighty God followed by thought of the day and news headlines. Students of grade VII and VIII welcomed the gathering through their mesmerising welcome dance. Our joy was doubled with the arrival of Sr. Maria Gracilda our new Principal. Sr. Ranitha Co-ordinator extended a hearty welcome invoking God's manifold blessings on our new Principal Sr. Maria Gracilda and assured her of our best wishes and co-operation in her new assignment.

“Good manners will open doors that the best education cannot.”-Justice Clarence Thomas. This quote was implemented by the students of grade VIII through a song. Sr. Maria Gracilda A. C the principal addressed the students and teachers by welcoming everyone to the new academic year. She emphasised that each of us is a beloved child of God. The riveting story of Panasonic Founder Konosuke Matsushita was beautifully showcased through a video presentation which communicated a message that “Success does not depend on one's education or money, we need to believe in ourselves”. She encouraged the children and reiterated the importance of being punctual to school and the school work was given through a formula “ I will do my best and I will be the best”.Good wishes and encouraging message was given to the students of grade X to focus on their studies and to aim higher in their academic excellency. She concluded her address by asking the students to imbibe all the courtesy values that they have learnt during the week.
