Carmel school was once again honoured by a visit from the counselor general of education, Sr. Mabilia.A.C. In her two week stay she visited all the classes of the primary, middle and high school, observing the children and the techinique used by the teachers in getting across to the children of the generation. She made time to speak to different groups advising them on various issues and counselled a few difficult students.

With a firm yet gentle hand she praised some and reproached others urging them to pursue a direction in their lives and not to be rolling stones. She stressed on the fact that character superceded intellect and change can come about only with humility and openness to correction.

On the 24th Sept she conducted an orientation programme for the staff- the salient topics being challenges faced by children, parents and teachers and self- realization. She advised the teaching faculty that immediate detection of problems today goes a long way in producing good citizens of tomorrow. Teachers were urged to create an atmosphere condusive to interaction and learning , wiping away school phobias and pressures. She added that self realization and acceptance of one’s capabilities leads to self improvement and success.

Sr.Mabelia stressed on the fact that values are building blocks of character and value education should be taught in the right manner, sticking to the text which has been carefully planned for the purpose.

The staff and children were grateful for the advise and guidance and efforts are being made to imbibe it in the days to come. The management was apprised and appropriate changes were made.

Thank you Sr. Mabilia.
