NAVNIDH HASSOMAL LAKHANI PUBLIC SCHOOL



Ms. Amrita Motwani PRINCIPAL, NHLPS Journey of Success Along with being the proud Principal of Navnidh Hassomal Lakhani Public School, I am also an authorized CBSE trainer and conduct workshops for CBSE teachers across the state. I truly feel that these workshops are a great medium of give and take of knowledge & experience, enrichment of one's life and adding meaning & value to it! Besides, so many memories get etched into mind that give you a reason to smile whenever you get reminiscent! In each workshop, along with the course content, my hidden agenda is to sensitize the teachers, to teach them how to deal with the students with more empathy, to tell them the importance of a strong teacher - student relationship, to hold a discussion on the need of inculcating moral values in today's generation and how teachers can be instrumental in it, to make them realize that on us, the teachers, lies the onus of shaping the lives of our learners and that it is a great responsibility to be a teacher. Teachers are usually deeply moved and by the end of the two day workshop, transformed for the better! They are thankful and overwhelmed, understanding the purpose and accountability of being a teacher. And believe me, the credit for all the praises I get, goes to our Shraddhey Siddh Bhauji because I deliver in the workshops only that what I have learnt and imbibed from him! Bhauji's preachings have indeed served as a great teaching aid to me. As I go into reminiscence and recollect memories of my journey in school , I realize that I am blessed to be under his tutelage! Before joining this school .... 'I wandered lonely as a cloud

That floats on high o'er vales and hills' Siddh Bhauji has connected my whole life with Sewa, Simran and Samarpan by motivating me to do my job honestly and making me understand its value & miracles, the sweet fruits of which, I am reaping in the form of more peace within myself , more success in my professional life and more recognition in society. At numerous times I have felt blessings coming all the way to me. ' I had neither wit nor words nor worth, Action nor utterance nor the power of speech ' My school is my second home. I have wept, I have laughed and I have grown as a person here. I have the honour of being one of the founder teachers of the institution and this fact gives me immense pleasure and a sense of pride and I couldn't find any other occasion apt for expressing it than this Foundation Day of the Society! I pray to His Holiness Sant Hirdaram Sahibji for bounties of blessings so that our Shaheed Hemu Kalani Educational Society keeps growing by leaps and bounds with each passing day!

I belong to a very ordinary family where education of girls is a far fetched dream. When I see students complaining about burden of studies I feel like sharing my life story with them. Their excuse of stress of studies sometimes makes me wonder why they are not thankful to their parents and their school for providing them all sorts of facilities? Instead of being grateful, many seem to be thankless! Growing up in a big joint family, in a typical orthodox atmosphere, dominated by my grandmother, I had lots of problems in my concern list. Education wasn’t that important in that part of my remote hometown, but the desire to study and earn a name and respect for myself in society kept me moving with grit and determination. Most of my cousins and even my siblings got married and settled after studying in that town school. But I fought for my identity, fought the battle to be my own person, fought the battle so as not to let other people's opinions and negativity overpower me. One big challenge in my life was during my college time when I had to study everything in English. Those times seemed very hard for me because my entire school education was from a Sindhi medium school. Well, being a science student and taking inspiration from the lifecycle of a butterfly, I understood fully well that if I had to grow, I had to be prepared to burn the midnight oil for my survival . Today I feel proud of taking that giant leap, of stepping out of the four walls of the household and work in a school of such great repute which is known in the entire city, not only for its high academic standard but also for inculcating moral values in children. I feel lucky to be a part of this mission where I am making myself useful for the society and also getting a chance to grow each and every day. Well, metaphorically saying, never look for the light, light your own light! The facilities and the resources the children have today can bring a big change in this nation, it’s just, that they have to come forward and grab the opportunity. I am sharing my story of struggle to give the message to people that- 'Never let anyone else's opinion affect your growth. Always have a dream in life and light up your own light.'

TREASURED MEMORIES Last night, while contemplating & turning the pages of my life, I remembered the phase when I was struggling with strenuous efforts in the initial years of my career. With the blessings of Paramhans Sant Hirdaram Sahibji and Almighty, I became fortunate enough to be a part of the Shaheed Hemu Kalani Educational Society - a caravan empowering the girls by imparting education and inculcating values. I have always been enthusiastic, dedicated and hard working towards discharging my duties at my workplace. I fondly recall the day when I got a life changing opportunity of being an academic coordinator. I was overwhelmed and delighted that my efforts were recognised by the Rev. Sidh Bhauji, a fatherly figure, captain of the crew & mentor and all the management members. This epochal event changed the course of my life.It was a blessing in disguise and extremely cathartic. I definitely found myself in a better place as a professional. Being appointed as an academic coordinator, there was a flow of tons of positive energy, confidence and strength in me. This chance definitely helped me in identifying my administrative skills and polishing them with passage of time. I was in a mystified situation, where on one hand, I was struggling with new roles and responsibilities and on the other hand there was a scuffle of being accepted by the colleagues and friends. As every cloud has a silver lining, I eventually managed to fit in with my fellow staff members despite a difficult start. I really feel content following the service philosophy of Sant Hirdaram Sahibji and blessed to be a part of this society for last twenty years that has brought prosperity, peace and everlasting happiness in my life. Last but not the least, I express my gratitude to Reverend Siddh Bhauji, my source of inspiration for having trust in me and entrusting charge of Std. I to V. I am thankful to Almighty for showering His choicest blessings in the form of my association with a golden-hearted person like-Ms. Amrita Motwani who has always been there for me to help and guide everytime even in distressing conditions. I am also thankful to God for blessing me with true friends Ms. Rekha Kewlani, Ms. Rini Sunil & many more who have been supporting me all the time. I also find myself favoured with His grace for having such a loving person as my soulmate and a wonderful family that has braced me all through these years of my life.

Conscious Mind is just a shadow of our Unconscious Mind.. In the movie \"Taare Zameen Par\", the art teacher tells the rude & cursing father of the dyslexic kid about \"Solomon Islands\", where the tribals don’t cut down a tree. They surround the tree & curse it for hours every day. Within a few weeks, the tree dries up & dies. So, when the tribals of Solomon Islands curse a tree, they are actually installing negative & harmful beliefs in the tree’s emotion (yes, trees have emotions). Within few days, those negative emotions become a belief & eventually changes the molecular architecture of the tree & kill it from inside.. 2500 years ago, Buddha said ‘ You are what you think' If you are a parent and you keep cursing your child in the name of constructive criticism, you are installing beliefs in their mind which will keep harming them forever.. But if you keep appreciating them sincerely, you are installing beliefs in their mind which will help them in their entire life.. Also be careful of what you keep saying to yourself. Repetition of words & thoughts is the best way to install a belief in your subconscious mind. If you keep saying you are a loser, don’t be surprised if you become a loser within a few months or years. If your friends keep saying such things to you, there is no harm in saying a quick goodbye to them. May be you value their friendship a lot. But you must value yourself more than such friendship. Accept all people as they are. Love all people unconditionally ( later Hinduism adapted it as Vasudeva Kutumbakam). Always keep saying to yourself *I am healthy, wealthy, happy, successful & prosperous! Anju Gogia (PGT- English)

Teaching is my profession, Teaching is my religion, Teaching is cherishing a tradition, Preparing many generations We are an ever growing community and we are proud of it that we are the part of Shaheed Hemu Kalani Education Society. It gives us great feeling that years after year society is transcending us towards growth. Such gaiety is rarely seen anywhere. Proud to be a member of Shaheed Hemu Kalani Education Society. ������������������ SHOBHANA DUBEY (TGT- Social Science) ‘Life can be quite unpredictable at times BUT we mUst bear in mind that nothing is impossible if we have the determination to accomplish something. No lockdown can stop the education fraternity from disseminating knowledge. COVID-19 is powerless before the entHUSiastic teaching fraternity who is committed to continue the teaching learning process. I believe the current global crisis nudges us to think and learn together and simplify many things in life.’ With the blessings of his Holiness Sant Hirdaram Sahib ji and the path enlightened by Rev. Siddh BhauJi, NHLPS believes that a minuscule virus shoUld not be allowed to disrUpt the education fraternity. Hence, oUr school designed a detailed plan for every teacher to impart knowledge to stUdents through various digital platforms. At first, I was bit anxioUs with the idea of flipped classroom teaching as it comes with great responsibility to live Up to the expectations of parents, students and administration. I faced varioUs challenges where I had to rethink, adjust and adapt to the online teaching environment, all in a very short time. I think the transition overall has worked surprisingly well. Teaching online boosted my confidence and also helped to discover the hidden qualities in me. I wasn’t aware aboUt my mUltitasking abilities and different teaching skills. The best part of teaching online was that it gave me an opportUnity to hone my classroom management skills. Today, I commUnicate throUgh compUter or phone screen with small sqUares displaying the names of students, but I wish I could have small talks with them which I Used to have in school premises. I miss meeting them in the classroom everyday. However, I emphasise that without the blessings and support from our motivator, Rev. Siddh Bhauji along with our Principal, Mrs Amrita Motwani and teaching colleagues, all this would have never been possible! I am blessed to be a part of Navnidh Family run by Shaheed Educational Society.

Garima Rijhwani (PRT English) SCHOOL, THE SECOND HOME FOR CHILDREN *In the classroom* *We laugh together* *We encourage one another* *We get a second chance* *We Never give Up* *We apologize* *We forgive* *We respect one another* *We keep oUr promises* *We are a family* Definitely, school is the second home of kids. Their major time is spent in the school. They play as well as learn with their classmates. The learning process that takes place in school is responsible shaping their behaviour in the future. The school establishes a foundation of information & wisdom for kids. In the initial years, when parents send their kids to school they are tensed & worried whether their kid will be able to cope up with the environment of the school or not. But as days pass the children become habitual to the school environment & the process becomes hassle-free. The children get adjusted to the environment & the school becomes their second home. The classmates become like family members for them. Here they learn the major lessons of life too. From the academics to moral values, majority of the lessons are learnt at school. These are the reasons why school is a family of many families together. The most crucial time of one’s life is spent in school. Teachers give their best to the children. Each child is different and the needs are also different. Some of them need extra attention and some need extra training. Not everything can be taught in a group. So whenever necessary, the teachers give personal attention, love and care to children like their parents at home. School is like a family where in, the teachers act as parents, always ready to protect their children from the external bad influences and nurture them in the best way possible. School days are stress free days of one's life. Hemlata Arora (PRT- Science)

Vegetarian food leaves a deep impression on our nature. If the whole world adopts vegetarianism, it can change the destiny of Humankind Being Vegetarian 25th November International Meatless Day, Animal Rights Day, SAK (Stop All Killing) is a concept developed by those who concurred with Dada Sadhu Vaswani ji when he proclaimed that the creation of God is bound by the golden chains to the Feet of the One God, the One Divine Father of us all. I was born in a Joint Family , where my grandparents used to eat Non veg and because of them even I was also included in meat consumption. At such a tender age it was really difficult for me to make rational additions in my diet. My mother has the greatest impact on my life , she always inclined me towards turning into a vegetarian as Having a Meatless diet does wonders to one's body, she also briefed me the ill effects of consuming Meat on body and mind. My Journey of turning into a vegetarian ignited when I Joined Navnidh Hassomal Lakhani Public School. Rev. Bhauji's enlightening Sessions on going meat -free and also to stop cruelty against meek and innocent Animals really moved me spiritually. I really felt enlighted after witnessing such divine and pure thoughts , from that point I was so happy and proud of my decision of pledging to be a vegetarian. At School also, me and my friends pledged to be a vegetarian and was also provided with a certificate. I am really thankful to Rev. Bhauji , my Alma mater for bringing this positive change in my life. I find myself immensly blessed and fortunate that I got to study in Navnidh Hassomal Lakhani Public School and when I count my blessings, I count this school twice as I got the golden opportunity to serve here as a teacher and also as the pioneer of Rev. Bhauji's ideologies and beliefs . The values which I learnt here , I am trying my level best to imbibe these in the our Students. So that they can also be a good human being and can take an initiative in stopping animal cruelty. Jai Hind Jai Bharat
