Joyful Beginning: A day of blessings and celebrations at our school.

The dawn of a new academic year brought forth a day of joy and excitement as our school welcomed our tiny toddlers to embark on their educational journey. This report encapsulates the vibrant atmosphere and heartwarming moments of the day.

The day commenced with a heartfelt blessing from our beloved Principal Rev. Fr. Martin Anto, who bestowed his well wishes upon each class and the entire Kindergarten section. As the Sun rose, the school adorned itself in festivity, with helium balloons adoring the path from gate to the park area, creating a whimsical and inviting atmosphere.

The kindergarten section was magically transformed into a wonderland filled with countless decorations and balloons, adorning every nook and cranny, turning it into a mesmerising paradise for the children. Adding to the enchantment of the day, our lively cartoon characters roamed the K.G. grounds, their colourful antics captivated the imagination of children and adults alike.

As the children stepped into the school campus, a whirlwind of emotions greeted them. Some were brimming with excitement in anticipation of new adventures. Others felt a twinge of nervousness & their stomachs fluttering with butterflies as they navigated the unfamiliar surroundings.

In a gesture of warmth and hospitality, our esteemed Principal Rev. Fr. Martin Anto personally welcomed each child. As a token of love and encouragement chocolates were distributed to the children in the class.

This day i.e. 8/4/24 was a momentous day for our St. Paul’s Family, as we proudly launched our new Nursery classes for the very first time. Indeed, it was a great day for all of us.

When the children entered into the classroom they were greeted with open arms and a broad smile from their teachers, who eagerly welcomed them to their new learning environment. A plethora of hands-on activities awaited, designed to ignite their curiosity and foster a love of learning from the very beginning. Teachers engaged the children in various creative activities such as colouring, reciting poems and storytelling, ensuring an enriching and enjoyable learning environment for all.

The first day in kindergarten was an unforgettable experience filled with laughter, learnings and new beginnings. As they bid farewell to their teachers and classmates, they left the class with sense of anticipation for the adventures that awaited them in the days to come.

 Divine Saint Paul, our Revered Patron, we humbly seek your protection over all of us. Bless each child and teacher with your guiding light shielding them from harm and embracing them with your boundless love. Amen.
