Annual Teachers’ Conference 2018-19

On 8th of June 2018, 600 teachers and staff of Udgam School for Children and Zebar School for Children came together under one roof to celebrate the successes and embrace the challenges that lay ahead. The Annual Teachers’ Conference was held at YMCA , Ahmedabad. It was a colourful gathering of trustees, directors, teacher and other staff members of Udgam School and Zebar School. The compere for the day, Ms. Aarti Kellogg, Supervisor of Udgam Primary Section engaged brilliantly with the audience and facilitated the event with ease. The day began with a prayer followed by the traditional lighting of the lamp by the trustees of the school Shri G.K. Choksi, Shri J.D. Patel, Shri Shaunak Majmudar and Shri Vartik Choksi along with Academic Advisors Ms. Radhika Iyer, Ms. Pratima Patell and Mrs Villoo Parikh. A motivating speech by veteran educationist, Shri Rajabhai Pathak, left an indelible mark on the audience. The guest speaker of the day was Swami Sukhabodhananda. He is the founder Chairman of Prasanna Trust. It was a great honour for the schools to have him as a speaker. His speech was based on Alacrity to life. He addressed our teachers and explained to them as to how they can expand their vision which in turn would help their students achieve success in life. The conference was a platform for knowledge sharing and an opportunity to discuss the successes and failures of 2017-18 and the future plans of 2018-19. Using power point presentations, the Vice-Principals of Udgam School for Children and Zebar School for Children spoke at length about challenges they faced last year and the changes they would bring in their respective sections in the future. The Executive Director, Sri Manan Choksi then presented his ideas on dealing with day to day challenges in schools with parents and students. He spoke at length on how parents, school and teachers have a common goal and how they can join hands and mould intelligent, hardworking and healthy responsible citizens for the country. Both schools have an accomplished and dedicated the teaching and non-teaching staff and it is quite difficult to decide who is more deserving. Finally came the much-awaited Employee Recognition and Motivation through awards to those who had proved themselves to be a shade better than their colleagues this year. Concluding the conference, Ms.Reena Kahlon, Vice-Principal of Middle and Secondary Section, Zebar School for Children, gave the Vote of Thanks.
