    On 7th June 2025, the Principals of Salesian schools from the Province gathered for their annual meeting to discuss significant matters affecting the educational landscape. The meeting commenced with an opening prayer led by Rev. Fr. Anthony Dhason SDB, setting a tone for the day.<\/h3>\n

    The first session of the meeting was conducted by Mr. Sandeep Dey, the Academic Excellence Manager at Headword Publishing Company, who shared valuable insights on educational strategies. This was followed by an enlightening introduction to Abacus by Mr. Rahul Kumar, aimed at enhancing students\u2019 cognitive abilities.<\/p>\n

    Rev. Fr. Sebastian Kuricheal SDB, Provincial, delivered an inspiring address, expressing gratitude to the Principals for their presence. He highlighted the crucial responsibility that educators have in shaping the lives of young people. He emphasized that while academic performance is important, it is equally vital to focus on the overall development of students. \u201cOur role as educators is not limited to academics. We must ensure we connect with our students on a personal level, providing them with the guidance and care they need,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n

    Rev Fr. Sebastian also stressed the importance of discipline, maintenance of school infrastructure, and proper record-keeping, urging the Principals to ensure that schools are well-maintained both inside and out. He encouraged a strong connection with students, particularly in the primary sections, and the need to instill core values early on in their education.<\/p>\n

    The Provincial further outlined several key responsibilities that the Principals must uphold:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Foster a strong bond with students and parents, becoming a father figure to all.<\/li>\n
    2. Enforce discipline firmly and consistently.<\/li>\n
    3. Maintain the cleanliness and upkeep of the school environment and infrastructure.<\/li>\n
    4. Keep records organized and up to date.<\/li>\n
    5. Advance the Don Bosco School Excellence Mission (DBSEM) with innovative changes.<\/li>\n
    6. Collaborate effectively with the Sisters in the schools.<\/li>\n
    7. Give special attention to younger students in lower classes, as they will be the future caretakers of the institution.<\/li>\n
    8. Commit to running the school with excellence, ensuring that the tasks are completed effectively.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Fr. Sebastian also commended the Principals for their excellent results, recognizing the collective effort that led to such achievements.<\/p>\n

      The meeting included various sharing sessions. Rev Fr. MC George SDB spoke about the upcoming Mini Boscoree at Don Bosco School, Barpeta Road, which is expected to bring together a vibrant community of students and educators. Rev Fr. Jogesh B. Sangma SDB shared his thoughts on strengthening the Past Pupils\u2019 organizations, recognizing their importance in fostering alumni engagement and support. Rev. Fr. Threnius N. Sangma SDB then provided insights into the Sports Academy and the numerous activities organized by the committee, highlighting the role of physical education in holistic development.<\/p>\n

      The session concluded with an open discussion moderated by Rev Fr. Nicodim Aind SDB, providing an opportunity for the Principals to voice their concerns and suggestions. The meeting ended on a positive note with a vote of thanks delivered by Rev Fr. Kerobin Minj SDB, expressing appreciation for the contributions of all present.<\/p>\n

      The entire programme was planned and executed under the able guidance and leadership of Rev Fr Alex Kattakayam SDB, Sector Head, School Education and Rev Fr Nicodim Aind SDB, Secretary, School Education of the province.<\/p>\n
