Graduation Day - Grade 12


Warm Memories and Big Dreams!!
National Public School, Kalkere celebrated Graduation Day on the school campus, for the batch of 2023-24, on Saturday, 3rd February 2024. The energy of the young graduands was unmatched as they ushered in the most awaited moment of their academic life amongst their parents, teachers and friends in the school. The programme started with a grand procession of the graduands, led by our Principal Ms Shyla Purushotham and Vice Principal, Ms Sumedha Seshu and the respective class teachers. After the ceremonial invocation song and dance and lighting of the sacred lamp, Ms Shyla Purushotham, in her welcome address, reminded her proteges of the vision of their alma mater and to develop an inquisitive mind and solution-oriented approach to shaping the future of the nation. Thereafter in a motivating message, our chief guest, Wing Commander John advised the young aspirants to learn, grow and excel with courage in whatever purposeful choices they make. Our special guest, Prof. Hanumanthara, citing humorous anecdotes, encouraged the young, outgoing students to work hard; and choose and utilise their time judiciously. It was an occasion of exhilaration, anticipation and aspiration - the ambience exuded warmth and beauty as the young graduands walked up the stage to collect their commemoratives, while the teachers most eloquently touched upon their personal journeys in school. The highlight of the celebration was a special musical rendition by the teachers of the outgoing batch. What brought loud cheer (coupled with nostalgia) from the students was a video footage of a montage of their activities on campus. The momentous occasion drew to a close with the students' pledge and the candle-lighting ceremony followed by the national anthem. All then joined for the dinner.

Graduation is not the end; but the start of a new beginning; a symbol of fulfilment, change and progress !!!
