Dear Parents,

The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled. As long as our ideas are expressed and thoughts kindled, we can be sure of learning as everything begins with an idea. Learning is not a process limited to schools and colleges only, nor does it end with the conclusion of one's school career. It is indeed a lifelong process. We live today in a world that is very different from the one we grew up, in the one we were educated in. The world today is changing at such an accelerated rate where we as educators need to pause and reflect on the entire system of education.

It is only the bright spark of education which dispels this darkness into pieces when we find ourselves lost in the clutches of ignorance. It serves as a key to the hidden treasure of knowledge. Education leads to the intellectual, physical, social, moral and spiritual growth in an individual where the "Parents","School" and "Society" play a very important role. An individual's God gifted curiosity; ability to communicate, discovery and understanding must be groomed so that we can visualize a prosperous tomorrow which has an enriched culture. Seneca has rightly remarked, "As the soil, however rich it may be cannot be productive without culture, so the mind without cultivation can never produce good fruit." So let us as parents, teachers and mentors shoulder the responsibility to cultivate good values of constant hard work and faith in one-self amongst our children to guide them on the right path of success.

Aristotle once said that, "Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all".
With warm regards.
