On Wednesday,10th September, we celebrated Teachers’ Day (which falls on 5th Sept.) and International Literacy Day (which falls on 8th Sept.), by felicitating three teachers from our Thane city for the yeoman service they are rendering for our New Generation to come. They are Principal(Retd.) Shri. Ashok Tilak(Saraswati Secondary School,Thane), Principal Mrs. Revathi Srinivasan (Sulochanadevi Singhania School, Jekegram,Thane) and Principal Shri. Bhaskar Chaudhary(Savitridevi Thirani School, Vartaknagar,Thane).
As it is said that ' Good teacher explains, superior teacher demonstrates and excellent teacher inspires' - These teachers have been inspiring the next generation.
In response to felicitations, all teachers spoke on "Parent-Student-Teacher relationships". Shri. Ashok Tilak said " this relationship is an equilateral triangle and every side has equal responsibilities and duties to perform". Mrs. Revathi Srinivasan said "the new generation is facing an information overload from various sources and we need to channelise these resources properly. NGOs like Rotary Clubs and schools have very important role to play in this assimilation."
Shri. Bhaskar Chaudhary said "Rotary Club of Thana west is father of our school and we are proud to be associated with them. We can jointly work on various projects designed for the benefit of the students and new generation". The felicitation program went very well.
We also went one step forward and augmented our membership by inducting Mrs. Revathi Srinivasan, a Teacher to our club. PP Rtn. Dr. Mahesh Parekh graced her formal induction in the club. This has strengthened our arms and opened new avenues of service to the cause New Generation and Literacy. We have created a history in our club wherein the teacher to whom we felicitated was inducted as an active member to our club on the same day.
