St Theresa’s Convent Sr Sec School Kunjpura Road, Karnal–132001 Circular No. STCS/007/2015 Date: 07.11.2015 Dear Parents The advent of the festive season brings with it the voice of hope and joy, a reason to pursue preparation, for life requires determined effort and hard work to achieve much more. Being regular and punctual contributes to the development of character and maximizes a person’s span of life leading to calmness, tranquility and self confidence. The course structure provided to the students is robust with best of facilities are provided to aid with their academics and extra curricular activities. Therefore, it is equally important to prioritize and pursue academics, as regular studies always ensure good grades. It is well said, “Take time to think, it is the source of power Take time to read, it is the foundation of wisdom and take time to pray, it is the greatest power on earth…….” The youth of today needs right thinking, to lead a clear vision of life. There may be problems of any nature or kind but these can be analyzed honestly and dealt with, proper thinking and acting. The time has come when we all must learn to use all available opportunities to harness our inner potentials and to overcome all barriers in our thinking and achieve greatness within and without and that is the secret of right action. I sincerely wish and pray that the Goodness and Love of the Almighty remain with all of you during this festive season. May the spirit of Diwali enlighten our minds and hearts with the splendor of togetherness and instill in us the desire to eradicate the darkness of ignorance. Wishing you all a very Joyous and Blessed Diwali. harmony, beauty and prosperity in the society. May this pious festival lead us to ‘Deep within us a seed of hope is implanted to cherish a desire for good’. Points to remember All students need to adhere to the school timings and manifest an appreciation for the value of time. Driving without a licence is an offence for which the traffic police has already penalized many students. (This measure is for the safety of our children) Once the students are in school, they will not be allowed to go home for any family celebration. It is important to cultivate a habit of regularity, discipline and punctuality in our students. Being absent from the school without any reason leads to lethargy and indiscipline. This applies to all the class specially IX, X ,XI and XII as class room teaching is an effective tool as it is a direct interactive session that leads to a high degree of learning. It also inculcates a habit of concentration. The school uniform: All the students should wear a proper uniform, shoes, socks, belt, ID card etc. The sense of same uniform leads to a spirit of equality and oneness. We the stakeholders need to cultivate this sense of responsibility in our children. The school culture has an everlasting effect that imbibes in every child a deep sense of discipline, gratitude and self-respect. The leave note / leave application should be duly signed by the parents, for proof of absence from school. School timings will be changed for winters after Diwali i.e 8.20 am to 2.30 pm Also the change in uniform will be adhered to i.e winter uniform. To regularize learning, class tests will be conducted every Saturday for all the classes. It is mandatory for the parents to sign the class tests and acknowledge the same. Sr Helima BS Principal
