Student participants of Sphoorthi

 

The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows. 

Sydney J. Harris

While mirrors help us to reflect on your own self, it is the window in us that helps us to see beyond personal achievements and reach out to the world outside.

Oakridge has always been sensitive to the values of empathy, caring and sharing. Sphoorthi- an initiative that envisions reaching out to facilitate quality education to the children of the school’s ayyamas, saw the culmination of its Phase 1 today. The students who participated in the program during the year 2010-11 were awarded certificates and trophies for successfully completing the same.

But as we believe every good thing initiated must continue and grow further, the II phase of Sphoorthi was also launched today, with the baton exchanging hands from Ms. Rubina ( Incharge of Sphoorthi during the year 2010-11) to Ms. Mohseena (In-charge for the year 2011-12)

The program was graced by Mr. Prassanna , Joint Managing Director, People Combine Initiatives, who gave away the certificates to the staff involved in the program last year.

Capt. Rohit Sen Bajaj, Principal, OIS Newton campus addressed the gathering and shared his valuable thoughts besides presenting the awards to the participants.

Ms. Jyothi Turaga, Vice-Principal, Ms. Hema Sanjay, Headmistress, s and Col. Ravindranath, Bursar of the OIS Newton Campus also felicitated the student participants.
