Special Assembly on Good Manners, class 1A.

Respect for ourselves guides our morals; respect for others guides our manners

The children entrusted to us are like seeds that need nourishment of values and education. As part of our continuous endeavour to achieve a holistic development of our children a special assembly was conducted on 17 April, 2013 in the school auditorium.

The assembly aimed at sensitizing the children about the importance of good manners. We started with a prayer Om bhurv bhawa swaha which the children chanted in gusto. Later the children of class 1-A performed a play in mime depicting scenes with the moral message of keeping our surroundings clean, the use of a handkerchief while sneezing or coughing, respect for our elders and so on.

The participating children stood in the formation of a 'Tree of Good Manners' which had the different branches inscribed with the golden words of good manners, namely, Sorry, Thank You, Excuse Me, May I ,Please etc. They then sang out a short , self- composed rhyme on each golden word. The children who were in the audience carefully watched the presentation and we believe will have imbibed the habits highlighted.
