Gratitude – The Healthiest and Powerful Human Emotion!


One more academic year has come to an end and it’s time to reflect and review! The year began with celebration of International Yoga Day followed by Positive Platter, Digital Safety Sessions, Anubhuti, Effervescence and many more activities. Our annual events were renamed as Crescendo and Momentum. It was a swift and happening year at school.

Each activity and event accelerated our enthusiasm and its success multiplied our energy to plan the next one! Our students have made us proud with a number of winning performances in external examinations and competitions. Our school was recognized and awarded at many platforms and these accolades would act as catalysts for the upcoming ideas and plans.

Many thoughts are flashing at this moment and one of the most important one is to express gratitude… I think this is the right time to stop and thank the people who have made a difference in our lives. The whole academic year is a collaborative effort of all who are involved in making each day significant. Expressing gratitude can transform a monotonous job into joy and ordinary opportunities into blessings. A simple word ‘Thank You’ demonstrates gratitude towards meaningful experiences and so it’s a magic word! Saying ‘thank you’ can change negative to positive, scattered to organized and frowns to smiles! Your willingness to put it into words is all that is necessary.

One year at school means the whole hearted participation of our dear students, wonderful parents and diligent teachers. There are many backstage artists like grandparents at home and support staff at school who play a vital role in shaping each day. Sincere thank you to all these people for making this year a great one! Expressing gratitude towards all the guests and speakers who blessed us with their magical words and added learning experiences in this journey!

Dear readers, believe in appreciating and thanking small things in life and see the miracle. You will feel content and enjoy your life. So, make it a habit to express your gratitude because, “It's not happy people who are thankful. It's thankful people who are happy!”

Adieu 2018

It seems like yesterday we welcomed the New Year 2018 and today we are entering its last month! Days have not just passed but flown with time. It’s now time to cherish memories of the year gone by, review our own thoughts and correct our mistakes. 2018 has given some of the best memories like witnessing the Royal Wedding (though on media) with full excitement, construction of the huge Statue of Unity, the launch of Echo plus device just like Alexa to work in smart homes and many more advancements. Technology has simply broken its boundaries and is ready to take a leap. Awareness about health and fitness in people has increased and a positive shift is seen in food habits and regular exercise.  At the same time, environmental problems are escalating. Deforestation is at its peak, breathing air has become equivalent to smoking number of cigarettes and temperature is on the rise day by day, one sixth of the world is facing drinking water scarcity. Extreme climatic conditions

Take That Pause…

The Human race is currently facing a strange situation of being locked down due to the COVID-19 crisis. A virus measuring an insignificant size has brought the whole world to a standstill. While marching towards the 21st century with the globe at his fingertips, man has never imagined this vulnerability. Maybe, this is the way of nature to remind him the purpose of life and teach him the right way of living it!! We Mumbaikars are so used to planning our day to the minute that the race against time has become our daily ritual. Our routines are such that there are no time gaps and all is set to the tee not giving us any opportunity to think of any spare time. Malls, theatres, restaurants, transport, etc. are easily available for our entertainment and luxury. We like to make our holidays or even the smallest weekends special by being away from home. We always complain that we don’t get enough time with our family as we are busy in our work schedules, tours, conferences and so on.

Two Decades at DSRB…

Image
This academic year has been special for us as we are completing thirty years of Bombay Cambridge Gurukul and twenty years of our school! Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan Vidyalaya, Borivali has grown into an international school as Dr. S. Radhakrishnan International School, Borivali. In twenty years we have made our mark from the local map to the global map. Sixteen batches of students have passed SSC and our first batch of IGCSE students is getting ready! What makes each school special? I believe it’s the school’sculture that makes each school unique! Over these twenty years, we are learning to learn new ideas and skills every day. Few years back, there was a different set of problems and solutions, but we have labelled those old sets as ‘Obsolete’ and are now ready to evolve with new systems, procedures and solutions every day. Parent profile has changed to a great extent from joint family culture to nuclear families with working and ambitious parents - naturally more demanding
