On Friday, a week ago, my students and I celebrated our one
year of ‘togetherness’. It was the day to remember the good moments we have shared
in the four walls of our classroom and to continue the good practices of helping
each other and working hard for the common goal.
I had asked each one of them to bring a cake for themselves.
Kelly, the student who dreams to be a ‘fossil scientist’ bought a big and creamy
cake for me too with a thank you note on it. His father came to hand over the
cakes.
The October month did call for the celebration as the year
is closing in and the annual exam for them is also approaching. I really wanted
them to enjoy after the yearlong effort they have been putting in and to roll up their
sleeves for the annual exam.
I have seen tears rolling down on their cheeks, the sweet smile
that brightens their face and the laughter that makes me always happy. The healthy sense of
competition among them, the pride they take in helping their friends and how
happily they work has only tightened the bundle of memories for the gone by year that
I would always cherish with deep affection.
The following Photographs show how we celebrated our “One
year of Togetherness”. Enjoy….

# A big thank you goes to all the parents of my class for making this small yet memorable moment possible for me and for the children by sending us the cakes. Even bigger THANK YOU goes to Kelly's dad and mom for the delicious cake that not only sweetened my taste buds but also touched my heart. Thank you all once again.
How sweet of them!
