Mansi has done a double again! You Make me Proud!

Mansi has done a double again! You Make me Proud!


Congratulations Mansi, I'm Proud of you!

It's one of those days when you are so happy that you have tears in your eyes as well as sad that you couldn't be there personally to experience that success of your child! Once again today Mansi my daughter has made me proud and how!

1st Prize Winner in Creative Writing in "Indradhanush, the Inter-School Competition" that was held at Sanskriti School Pune, today - 26th October 2013!

A1- Grade with 92.5% Marks in her  Class X –Summative Assessment 1 ( 2013-2014) Examinations!

And what a day it was for me! Today was Mansi's Result for her Class X –Summative Assessment 1 ( 2013-2014). Unfortunately as I was not keeping well and unable to commute to School; I had sent a message with her for the Class Teacher to excuse me from the attendance and send the Marks and Grades along with her. 

To add to this Mansi had left early morning to attend "Indradhanush, the Inter-School Competition" in Creative Writing to be held at Sanskriti School, Pune. With both events in mind the only confidence I had along with a strong gut feeling that she would come out with flying colors in both the events. All day long I was uneasy and longing to attend the results, but waited with excitement and expectations until she was to return from school late in the afternoon!

All through the day even during the Competition she had kept me in suspense saying the results were awaited at the Competition and also as soon as she came from School had taken a quiet stance not giving out much, saying she had done well and it was only on reaching home that she surprised me with a huge laugh and utter excitement that she had won the 1st Prize in the Creative Writing Competition , and showed me the Certificate, Trophy and a wonderful Book - The Huge International Best Seller - ALEXANDER - Book One - CHILD OF A DREAM - by Valerio Massimo Manfredi that was presented to her by the Principal of Sanskriti School Pune - Mrs.Devyani Mungali. A big thank you goes to the organizers Sankriti School for the wonderful event, which Mansi had so much good to say about!

As if that was not enough and even before I could ask her about her results she jumped up with joy to announce that she had secured A1 - Grade with 92.5% Marks in her Class X –Summative Assessment 1 ( 2013-2014) results. I was overjoyed and in tears at her dual victory. I felt sad that I could not be present personally to get the results in the school which would have added to my joy. Once again while applauding her efforts and performance I thank the School for their continued support, tutelage and guidance in bringing out the best of the student by motivating them to take part in such wonderful Competitions!

The Photographs of the felicitation are awaited and I will certainly update them in my next post!

Way to go Mansi! You have made me Proud! Take a Bow!

Your Alma mater Creates you!

However big or small your achievements may be , one should not forget that it is your Alma mater-(a school, college, or university at which one has studied and, usually, from which one has graduated.) - which is primarily responsible for moulding your character and making you what you are today, besides the culture and upbringing from your parents. It decides the combination of traits and qualities distinguishing the individual nature of a person that you are.
   
Today as I post about the proud achievements of my daughter Mansi I have equally to thank her school - City Pride School, the Management, Teachers, Non-teaching staff, and not the least to mention her Friends and classmates who have motivated and stood by her at all times for all that she has achieved. 

We often forget that a child spends over half the life period of their Schooling years in the School or as I mentioned rightly his/her Alma mater. Yet few of us remember or let alone thank, our Alma mater for all that we have achieved or for what we are today as we go ahead and laud ourselves for our achievements. There is no doubt that your achievements are primarily a net result of your hard work, dedication and unstinting, relentless efforts to achieve your dreams, but behind all this stands the silent, invisible yet very omnipresent hand and blessings of our Alma mater. 

On behalf of my daughter Mansi and myself I take this opportunity to thank all her friends, classmates, Teachers and Management from City Pride School, who have been congratulating her for her achievements always and motivating her to do better. It is your love, blessings and best wishes that have been with her all through her success, and as their School Tag line says "Reaching New Heights"; so they should be given equal credit for her achievements. 

Congratulations!!

It is a proud and happy moment for City Pride School family. City Pride School is one of the few schools in India to have earned NABET (National Accreditation Board of Education & Training) Accreditation. This accreditation certificate has been awarded by Ms Sheila Dikshit, the honourable Chief Minister of Delhi on 10th October, 2012 at Delhi.

 **********
While I proceed to conclude,I once again thank my own Alma mater for all that I am, I take this special opportunity to also remember and thank my own School and Alma mater St.Stanislaus High School Bandra- Mumbai, for all that I have earned from being a proud student of this wonderful Institution. More over so as they are in their 150th Year , a great feeling for me as well as the school. The School Tag line says as I so believe myself - "Born for Greater Things" - 

Born for Greater Things
  
Thank you my Alma mater!

It is therefore very important that we carry forward this legacy of our respect, love and cherish our Alma mater for time immemorial!

Proud to post Mansi's latest Achievement

Proud to say that my daughter Mansi had a great day today with a wonderful achievement coming her way. "Another feather in her Cap" so to say! It was with great happiness and uncontrollable emotional outburst that Mansi came and announced to me that she had a big surprises for me. I knew she has some wonderful announcements coming my way so I awaited eagerly until hurriedly dug out of her bag an envelope and a certificate. I eagerly tried to see what they were while she dodged them naughtily. 

First to come was her "First Class" rank and achievement for Singing (Gayan) in the "Praveshika Purna" from the Akhil Bharatiya Gandharva Maha Vidyalaya Mandal. 

She has received a wonderful certificate from the institute duly attested by none other than Madhusudhan Apte - Registrar of the Mandal. Unfortunately I will be able to  display the photograph of Mansi with her Certificate maybe later tomorrow as they have yet to receive the copies.
