Principal’s Message
Dear Parents Hari Om! It is in this challenging time of the pandemic, that I joined NV Chinmaya Vidyalaya, Shegaon, as the Principal. Educational Institutions, children, teachers and parents all are experiencing these challenging moments. Due to these unforeseen circumstances, changes are taking place in the entire world, in different fields. The biggest change seems to be in the educational field. We are all experiencing changes in the educational policies and the teaching – learning methods. So, the need of the hour is, for parents, teachers and Management, to think unitedly for the benefit of our children. During this lockdown, we at Chinmaya Vidyalaya, Shegaon are doing our best for the all-round development of our students. We wish to see, that these young children grow up into responsible and useful members of society.
We also wish to ensure that, their inherent qualities get expression, their talents get nurtured and their creativity is enhanced. We must realise that scoring more marks depends on the natural gift of a child, in the areas of memory, retention and recall. All the children have different capacities as they have different gifts for sports, music, painting, public speaking etc. Children appreciate noble thoughts and deeds. It is our duty to nurture these qualities in them. The Vidyalaya Management has taken appropriate steps to deal with the current situation and is made elaborate plans to ensure that the study of students is continued. For conducting online classes smoothly, fibre optic line has been laid down in Vidyalaya. To upgrade the skills of our teachers, following online training sessions have been conducted this year, for ourTeachers:-
1) Workshop on CVP by eminent educationist like Smt. Shanti Krishnamurty, Director, Chinmaya Education Cell, Coimbatore and her team.
2) Workshop on “Effective Teacher” by Counsellor and Psychologist Dr. Girishankar from Mumbai
3) Seminar by Swami Chidrupananda New Delhi on “How to make teaching more interesting”
4) Training on “Online learning and its future” by Mr.Divyalok Sharma, Senior Director, Pearson VUE. Apart from the above training, all our teachers are now upgraded with the skill of taking virtual class. We also had an online PTA Meeting, through Zoom. Like this the interaction with parents on formal and informal meetings will continue. Physical development of the child is of utmost importance, so in our online time table P.T., Art & craft, Music periods are included. We pray to our beloved Gurudev, to shower on us His Grace and Blessings, to help us educate the children in the way HE wants us to do.
