PATHA BHAVAN HAS SUCCESSFULLY MADE EVERYONE FEEL ITS VERY OWN INDIVIDUALITY. IT HAS CAREFULLY PRESERVED ITS ESSENCE AND HAS KEPT ITSELF SEPARATED FROM THE ORTHODOX THOUGHTS AND SYSTEM OF EDUCATION.

FROM THE VERY FIRST DAY THE TEACHERS ONLY ENDEAVOURED TO REACH TO THE HEART OF THE STUDENTS.THEIR PRIMARY AIM WAS TO CREATE AN INTEREST WITHIN A STUDENT, WHICH IS THE SOUL PURPOSE OF EDUCATION.

THE PERSON WHO PIONEERED THE VISION IS OUR DEAREST UMADI - UMA SEHANABISH - OUR FOUNDER MEMBER - SOMEONE WHOSE IDEALS AND THOUGHTS STILL LINGER IN OUR HEART AND CONTINUE TO SHOW US THE GUIDING LIGHT.

I CANNOT HELP QUOTING A LINE FROM WORDSWORTH WHICH IS VERY APT IN THIS REGARD -

“THE SONG IN MY HEART I BORE …..LONG AFTER IT WAS HEARD NO MORE.”

IT WAS 1965 WHEN I CAME TO THIS SCHOOL AS A STUDENT.
TODAY I FEEL PRIVILEDGED TO SHOULDER THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE ADMINISTRATION OF A PART OF THE SCHOOL.
“AMADER PATHA BHAVAN”….. OUR SCHOOL SONG, STILL TOUCHES ME …….THE WAY IT TOUCHES OTHER STUDENTS. IT IS ACTUALLY NOT A SONG BUT AN EMOTION THAT BRIDGES THE GAP BETWEENN THE SCHOOL AND THE STUDENT.
THE SENSE OF AFFECTION TOWARDS THE SCHOOL CAN BE FELT EVEN IN THE PRESENT GENERATION. IT IS BECAUSE PATHA BHAVAN IS A PLACE WHERE THEY GROW UP WITH THE FREEDOM OF THOUGHT, NOTHING IS IMPOSED ON THEM.
EDUCATION IN OUR SCHOOL NEVER HINDERS THE NATURAL PROCESS OF DEVELOPMENT OF A CHILD; NEITHER HAS IT WEIGHED THEM DOWN WITH THE BURDEN.

AS AN EX STUDENT AND HEADMISTRESS OF THIS SCHOOL I HOPE THAT IN THE COMING DAYS WE WOULD ALWAYS FOLLOW THE PATH PAVED BY OUR UMADI.
