Cherishing Our Guides A Joyful Teachers’ Day Celebration
Published On: September 5, 2024
Teachers’ Day at Shree Swaminarayan Gurukul Bangalore was celebrated in a unique and joyful manner, with students stepping into the roles of their favorite teachers, Swamiji, wardens, and management staff for the entire day. From the moment the day began, students who were assigned as wardens woke up their peers and ensured everyone was ready for the pooja, creating an atmosphere of fun and responsibility. During the study period, the roles were reversed, with the teachers playing the part of students while the children led the classes. This switch provided a lighthearted experience that everyone enjoyed.
The school assembly was another highlight, where teachers and students switched roles entirely. Teachers behaved like students, while the children played the roles of principal, coordinators, and other staff members. During this unique assembly, the principal and coordinators led the pooja, and after the assembly, Swamiji presented gifts to all the teachers, showing appreciation for their hard work and dedication.
Afterward, the students took over the classrooms, teaching their peers, while the main teachers took a break and played a game of cricket, which added a fun and relaxing element to the day. Meanwhile, for the female staff, indoor games were organized by the students, complete with exciting prizes that brought smiles to everyone involved.
A special traditional South Indian-style lunch was prepared and served by the students for their beloved teachers. This thoughtful gesture was accompanied by a touching video presentation that the students had prepared. The video highlighted memorable moments shared between teachers and students, leaving many teachers moved and emotional.
The celebration also included a showcase of the teachers’ talents, where they displayed their musical skills, played instruments like the tabla, sang songs, and even danced, much to the delight of the students. As the event came to a close, the students handed over letters of appreciation to their teachers, expressing their heartfelt gratitude for the constant support and guidance they received throughout the year. This emotional and memorable gesture made the day truly special for everyone involved.
