It was a moment of great emotional recalcitrance over a formal school farewell, where the boys gathered in a somber mood, although with a genuine smile over their countenance. This was the official last interaction with their school authorities. The teachers, who taught them various subjects in a steadfast manner, were silently embracing all the final year students of class 12 and encouraging them all for selecting their desirable goals.
This was a moment where there weren’t any breach in emotional perspicuity. Generally, when students get punished or are deprived of their rights due to an annoyance of a teacher, or are at times even despised for their severe malpractices or mistakes, teachers apply strict vigilance and strict punishments for those students, which instill a certain agony in the adolescent child. Not been able to understand and mirror their mistakes, they deliberately start mocking at them, thinking it to be their weapons to become smart and confident.
But on this auspicious day, all were in tears, emotions fluttered like a bird wants to fly in the free firmament. The inner pain couldn’t be reciprocated by any means with a silent thanksgiving to the temple of worship which was a second home of these bright kids.
In their cheerful disposition they received their teachers with pride and affection. They bowed down to them offering their earnest regards by touching their feet. Their ardent desire to be associated with this school is registered in the school alumni for tying up with the passing students who will be veterans. They moved to the auditorium in contentment. Life seemed to have halted as their emotions triggered to the fact that they never wanted to be segregated with this institution which they worship as a temple.

With such a motivation the teachers , the Principal and the Rector guides the students to enable these students to contribute in society for the needy , deprived and underprivileged with compassion and empathy.
The day of farewell churned all those sensitivities in an emotional palindrome. They entered the auditorium and maintained silence in a queue. Receiving a desirable, attractive moment and the school magazine enhanced their solemn composure. Some were happy to have enrolled in various colleges , some were in an await to select their desirable courses and then attempt for an admission in respective colleges , and some students decided that they will reappear for some medical and engineering examinations next year with much thorough preparations. Time and tide waits for no one. So is the prime time in these 12 years in school. The benches, chairs, the cheerful vibes, the canteen, the principal’s room, the playground and the staff room, all were reminding them that this temple is a place of worship.
Do visit it whenever it is favourable and be a part of the school alumni. Some photo shoot with teachers, the venerable Rector and the honorary Principal and among friends, the felicitation and the verbiage united those fresh spirits in an union. Life has to move on. And the academic life has to be uplifted in its expected goal. They learnt that “School is always a beautiful place to learn and grow.”
