Dear Parents,
            
               Season’s Greetings. You are well aware of your ward’s performance in the Mid Term Examination. Now we are quite busy with our Final Term Syllabus which is being taken care of by the teachers especially with regard to the students of X and XII. The school is excelling in other fields apart from pure academics. In the recent past, our students participated at the city, state and at the national level competitions and have brought many laurels to the school. Just to mention a few,

•  ICSE/Declamation Contest: Winner in junior category and runners up in seniors at the Zonal level.

•  Interschool Debate Contest organized by SAIL: Runners up.

• ICSE/Creative Writing Contest Regional Champions.

• ICSE/Sports (Ahmedabad): National level champions at long, high and triple jumps, 4x100 relay national champions & Overall National Champions.

•  ICSE/Basketball (Bengaluru): National runners up in two categories.
  In the field of social awareness, our school has gone all out to create its niche by involving every student in several projects and programme. We are proud members of UNO’s international initiative ‘Millennium Development Goals’ under the guidance of Mrs. Bella Mohan, our teacher. To participate in such international seminars and processes, two students are going to Czech Republic in April 2010. Similarly, twelve students would be visiting Belgium in June 2010 as a part of International Cultural Exchange Programme. The students have already been preparing for it and had put up a show at recently concluded Khadi Mela at the city. We have even tied up with our local FM channel BIG 92.7 FM to bring awareness about our effort. Some of it will be aired on Children’s Day on 14^th November 2009.
  
  Due to the already scheduled Assembly Election in the state, the buses from the school will be requisitioned for election duties from 22^nd November (Sunday) 2009 to 25^th November 2009 in the First Phase of Election. Similarly, the same will be done, depending upon the situation and need, from 29^th November 2009 to 3^rd December 2009 in the Second Phase. However, we are facing uncertainties regarding the aforementioned requisition and this certainly puts before us more challenges as regarding the availability of buses for the whole school. Keeping this in mind, we are planning to conduct classes for the higher sections on the said days. However, when all the buses are available, normal classes for both primary and senior sections will recommence with normal routine. Your cooperation in this regard is highly awaited. For the moment, kindly note the proposed fixture:
   

• Xavier’s Day : 3^rd December 2009. All are invited to attend the Holy Eucharistic Celebration at 6:30 a.m.

• Usual classes will resume on 4^th December 2009.
  
  Forthcoming Examinations:
   

• December 14^th 2009 : Unit Tests for Final Term ( Classes VI-IX)

• December 15^th 2009 : 2nd Selection Test (Class X)

• December 17^th 2009 : 2nd Terminal Examination (Class XI & XII)

• February 15^th 2010 : ISC Board Examination for Class XII

• March 3^rd 2010 : ICSE Board Examination for Class X
  
  
   
              I conclude now with a quote by William Ralph Inge, “The aim of education is the knowledge not of the facts but of values”. Be assured that we are committed to bring the best out of our students in their overall development.
  
  With God’s blessings on every family,
