“What children need most are the essentials that grandparents provide in abundance. They give unconditional love, kindness, patience, humour, comfort, lessons in life. A child needs grandparent to grow a little more securely into an unfamiliar world.” The students of St. Teresa Convent School, Panchkula, celebrated Grandparents Day on a virtual platform and expressed their love and understanding of this special bond shared between their grandparents and them. On that occasion, the students of the primary wing performed various activities for their grandparents with gratitude and zest. They recited poems, jazzed up to foot-tapping songs, sang melodious songs, and also displayed their creative hand skills by giving personal touch for their grandparents.The grandparents have ears that really listen, arms that always hug and hold, love that’s never ending, and a heart that’s made of gold. The children were very excited to showcase their love for their grandparents and this was evident on their faces while they were performing. It was a moment of elation to see the happiness ushering in the faces of all the grandparents who made the most of this wonderful day with happiness. The Principal Ms. Shelley Chugh addressed the audience and proclaimed the importance of having their presence even in the virtual classes which the school is conducting for the students. The immense support and love received from the parents and grandparents even in these troubled times has helped the school move headway focussing on all the scholastic and co-scholastic areas without facing any hindrance in the student’s learning.
