My family, My Oxford

The title is indeed apt for my write up. Oxford is not just an elite school, its’ a royal family. I am extremely happy to be able to express my feelings towards my family through this blog post.

The year 2007 was one of the best years of my life. It was 15th of March when I joined Oxford Public School. First day can be frightening and I was nervous too. But the environment was so encouraging, all the educators were so dedicated towards their students. Everyone helped a new teacher like me, even the students – I was on cloud nine! Everything was so good!

Continuing my journey in the school I made great friends, learned many new concepts of teaching and became part of this huge family. More importantly, Oxford became an integral part of my life. At Oxford, the students don’t just learn, they grow – mentally as well as emotionally. The senior administration including Principal Ma’am, Vice Principal Ma’am and Sudesh Ma’am have made this possible. They make sure that the educators not only focus on teaching about what’s in the book but also the concepts which develops the overall personality of a student.

The various activities like:
1.       Daily exercise along with music.
2.       Zero Period – which includes teaching the students yoga, word of the day, thought of the week and interact about anything and everything you feel like!
3.       Dare to Express – a platform which allows each student to be able to express themselves efficiently along with the support of their class teachers.
4.       Participation in various competitions, quizzes and exhibitions – this being my favourite part as I handle often.
5.       Creative workshops after final exams for primary student.
6.       TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) talks – motivating each student to do something different in life.

Ah, much about student’s education; let me move on to activities conducted to develop “Oxfordian” level educator.

Monthly workshops, positive competition amongst educators (recent one being vocabulary and pronunciation test), parties (yes we do have great parties!!), family like atmosphere – all this makes us so glad of being part of this school. In the recent years, I have grown a lot, become a better teacher and more importantly a better human being.

My post would be incomplete without expressing my gratitude towards our Principal Ma’am. I would like to thank her for making our school shine, allowing us to be the best that we could be. She has always provided an atmosphere which has so far made my journey more enjoyable and all the more rewarding.

I am always amazed at how God brings people and places into our lives to bless us. Thank you for everything Oxford! Hope the journey continues forever…..

Secrets of a Teacher's Ward

It has been a year I passed my 12th grade and began a new journey of my life, but the memories of Oxford Public School have not yet faded. It has been a long journey with some ups and downs, a lot many things a child experiences in his school days - bunking a class, roaming around the corridors, standing outside Principal’s office, parents being called for annual report and what not. I am pretty sure most you might have experienced all of this, but to everyone’s surprise all of this never happened with me because my mother teaches in OPS. I find this blog the right platform where I can explain how it is to be a teacher’s ward. It is definitely fun. You are neither ghar ka na ghat ka :D . Classmates see you as a potential tale-teller and teachers expect you to be a perfect student!  I always studied in the school where my mother taught and for a year she was my class teacher too. So in my 15 years of schooling, I never missed her. We literally spent 24 hours together unde...

Let's Do It

Hello everyone! I hope all of you are having a good time at school, excited about the new developments at school, the new changes we are trying to bring in and the events that are in the pipeline. It is your participation, your inputs and your proactiveness that would make everything a roaring success. There is just one more thing that I would like to ask for- please remain motivated. Yes, that’s the catch. To remain motivated is the biggest challenge these days. So many times, I have seen smiling faces, bubbling with energy, raring to go at the time of interview becoming dull after a week in the class. I want all my educators to have a genuine smile on their faces. I agree that times are tough. We do not have the same atmosphere in the class which was there when we were students. In our time, teachers were given utmost respect and the child was taken to task if there was any complain from the school. If any note regarding our disobedience or insincerity reached our parents, t...

Let's be a child again

A child, who is a new spring A child, who is full of energy A child, who has desires A child, who has immense love. Life is not a game to tame, It is to feel the pleasure Life is to do silly acts, Add to regret them. Life is to appreciate what you have, It is to cherish the beauty you have. Life is to love the people around you, Not to question the relationships with you. Life is to accept the reality. It is to express heartily. Life is to live the moment, to be around the people you love, to keep your heart out, to enjoy the beautiful time, to plead, to regret........ Life is too short to be spent in ignorance and hatred. Life is just to love and spread love..... Priya Mundra Educator, Oxford Public School
