This dream would not come true without valued parents’ encouragement and involvement, teachers’ affection and effort. Dear parents our hearty welcome to each one of you. We are sure that you will continue extending your support, encouragement and all the more involvement in further movements too.
Let me remind you parents, 21st century education is the refined and reformed form of education through several revolutions. We must understand
The four pillars of Learning are the fundamental principles of  reshaping education.
1.   Learning to Know : to provide the cognitive tools required to better comprehend the world and its complexities, and to provide an appropriate and adequate foundation for future learning.
2.   Learning to Do : to provide the skills that would enable individuals to effectively participate in the global economy and society.
3.   Learning to Be : to provide self analytical and social skills to enable individual to develop to their fullest potential psycho-socially, affectionately as well as physically for an all-round complete person.
4.   Learning to Live Together : to expose individual to the values implicit within human rights, democratic principles, intercultural understanding and respect and peace at all levels of society and human relationships to enable individuals and societies to live in peace and harmony.
Dear parents you are going to witness, you have been witnessing, how our children are gaining these 21st century skills. This event also forms a part skill acquisition like collaboration, sportsman spirit, organizational skills etc which is essential for us to survive in this highly competitive world.
You are all most welcome to stay here this morning, witness this mega event and encourage our young sportsmen!
Who knows, a PT Usha, or Shini Wilson or MD Valsmma or Srisanth or I M VIjayan or Anju baby George or mayugha may emerge from this family!
At last, but not the least my dear energetic learners and enthusiastic trainers, wish you all the very best! Continue sportsman spirit.
“I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed”
Michael Jeffrey Jordan ,also known by his initials, MJ, an American former professional basketball player, entrepreneur, and principal owner and chairman of the Charlotte Hornets said these words.
I repeat : I Qoute
“I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed”
So, Dear children winning or losing is not so important. Your active participation counts.
In the end, I express Hearty welcome to everyone present here! Hope our children will make you enjoy, entertain, enlighten and also learn!

Thank You & Jai Hind!
