t is customary for the members of the RSJMS Parent Teacher
Association to put up a variety programme for the teachers
of the school on September 5, the Teachers’ Day. The annual
Ievent organized, after school hours, has evolved into a time of
camaraderie and bonding as the PTA comes up with new and innovative
ideas to reinvent it every time. This year too, the PTA organized a
wonderful show which was graced by the presence of Dr. Kiran Datar,
Chairperson, RSJMS and the Headmistress Mrs. Manju Rajput. Teachers,
the guests of the show, were given a warm traditional welcome as they
entered the D.D. Auditorium. Several exciting games turned out to be
the highlight and kept up the tempo throughout the event. The fun
games saw the usually calm and composed teachers running to collect
the items listed in the games, struggling with locks and keys, trying
to burst each other’s balloon apart from singing and dancing merrily.
This high voltage action was followed by a heart -warming group
song by the PTA members. The fun filled programme was appreciated
by all present. It ended with a delicious lunch for everyone. And yes,
Day Celebration the photo booth, a very thoughtful gesture, was a popular hit with
all teachers who couldn’t resist posing for pictures with their friends!
Kudos to the creative PTA team for putting up such an entertaining
show!

e were all very excited when we were told that the Parent
Teacher Association puts up an entertainment programme for
teachers on Teachers’ Day. We began brainstorming and each
Wone of us came up with new and interesting ideas to make this
event a memorable one. Finally, we decided to play a series of fun games
with the teachers to bring out the little child in them and entertain them at
the same time. We had games like the Wallet Game (in which the teachers
searched their wallets for a series of notes), the Foil Paper Game (where
our teachers left all of us in awe as they adorned their respective partners
creatively with foil). We had thought that our Lock and Key Game would
prove to be a test of nerves for the teachers but they were so quick that we
were totally stumped. The Balloon Game for the sports teachers left everyone
rolling with laughter as they tried to burst each other’s balloon while saving
their own. And finally, the Number Dance Game turned out to be the icing
on the cake. In this game, the teachers were asked to break into groups of
different numbers and it was so much fun that the whole D.D. Hall was
resounding with laughter.
We had also put up a photo booth for the teachers where they could pick
up any placard of their choice and get their pictures clicked. And last but not
the least, was a speech followed by a gratitude song that we all sang with
a lot of enthusiasm to express our appreciation for the teachers. It was a
moment of pride for us when Dr. Kiran Datar, Chairperson, RSJMS and the
Headmistress Mrs. Manju Rajput applauded our efforts. The memories of this
year’s Teachers’ Day Celebration will always remain etched in our minds.
