Those school days were so much fun, when we did not have much to worry about and could be so carefree about everything. The mornings always started with the assembly, where all of us would stand in lines  and would listen to out seniors giving away news, special items followed by the prayer .And some years later we were standing at the podium giving away speeches. We had various cultural programmes, fests, fairs, inter-school competition ranging from elocution to spelling competition. The day outs to picnic and exhibitions were the best. The uniforms which was the symbol of each school signified the unity.Our education system is so puzzled when we have to learn so many things which we will never use in our lives.  If we were given practical classes with games and discussions, our leaning would have been an experience and as kids we would never  wait for a holiday . Knowledge  is infinite , it  makes a lot of difference on how it is imparted.

It was a general  question by visitors coming to our places on what we wanted to become when we grew old. And the answer for boys would usually be cricketer or an astronaut or pilot and for girls it would be a doctor or an engineer or a simple I DON’T KNOW would also do. Not even knowing what you have to study in it we would fantasize ourselves becoming one and would sound so confident while answering. Now when I look back upon I find it so silly on how the children are not asked  on what do u love doing?? Some kids don’t like reading and they get scared of seeing the size of the book ( I am talking about novels here), they can see the movie.By the end it’s the understanding that matters.

There is so much pressure on the kids for studies these days that except school, they have various tutions in a day. It would be so much of a help if we were exposed to all the  co-curricular activities from various sports to dancing to instruments to singing.  No doubt each  school has its own activities but usually the one person who is best at it always leads. All of us are gifted, if we  specialize  in what we love and what we are  good at we will do wonders . A 10 year old would not know what means passion, forget knowing what his passion is. And that’s when teachers and parents do their duty on finding out what is the best quality in a child.

Its no point becoming a JACK OF ALL AND MASTER OF NONE::* AIN’T IT::?
