“ Teaching is the profession that  teaches all the other profession”.

On Wednesday, 8^th February 2017, St. Mary’s Convent School, Geyzing organised an orientation  day for the Staff. The day started with the spokesperson Mr. Anshuman Paul and the representatives of the Madhuban publishers gracing the floor. Sr. Lucy John, our Principal welcomed the resource person and introduced the schedule of the day.

The session started with an activity of origami. All the groups were quite enthusiastic. When the teachers finished their assigned activity, Mr. Anshuman shared his observation with us giving emphasis on Team Work. It is with freedom and responsibility that the children learn in the class room.

The second session was more about child centric education. It is the child who is important in teaching learning process. The classes should be held in a such a way  where the child can think out of the box. The most important learning in this session was emotional balance. How we as  teachers can help the child to motivate through verbal appreciation and small rewards. As the children are going through the new era of technology and working parents, it is important that we teachers  play a vital role in their lives.

We had sufficient time to interact with the resource person. Mr.Anshuman was very helpful and resourceful. The day ended with lot of understanding as to why we are teachers and who we are building.

We thank the school Management for organising such an enriching and inspiring session for us before we commence our new scholastic year.
