Teachers’ Day at Aux- Lonavla!

A day every teacher looks forward to year after year is the Teachers’ day. It’s a day to remind oneself of our vocation as teachers. The atmosphere in the whole school was one of excitement and gaiety. The teachers dressed in their best came to school at the usual time, greeted and wished by scores of students all armed with hand made cards, flowers and loving smiles. Before the programme could begin, the teachers were escorted to the basement by senior students. After being seated, a prayer service invoking God’s blessings was conducted. Then followed a colourful entertainment programme of skit, song and dance performed with enthusiasm by students of primary and secondary sections. Each musical beat, each dance step and every word uttered was filled with love and appreciation. The sisters of the school led by the Headmistress, Sr. Sheela Furtado had painstakingly prepared the children for the programme. Sr. Josephine Fernandes, the animator too lent her gracious presence to make the teachers feel even more special. Words of appreciation and gratitude were spoken by Sr. Josephine and Sr. Sheela. They lauded the efforts of all the teachers and expressed their sincere gratitude for all, the teachers do for the institute. A gift was presented to each teacher by Sr. Josephine.The sisters took care of everything that day. Before the start of the programme a delicious breakfast was served to the teachers. After the entertainment programme each class teacher spent some time with her class, interacting with her students. There was joy and merriment all around. After the students left, the sisters made available a sumptuous lunch. Every teacher enjoyed the well thought out items of the lunch. The teachers expressed their gratitude to Sr. Sheela and all the sisters for making the day so pleasant, enjoyable and memorable.Thus will go down in the memory of every teacher yet another wonderfully celebrated Teachers’ day.
