My School Is My Happy Place

-

 

School - an institution where as a student I have spent most of my time discovering myself and the world around me. Being back in school after online classes has truly made me realize the importance of this institution, not only in the academic aspect but on several levels. Seeing my teachers and peers has positively kept me eager to attend school daily. 


My teachers are always there to help, guide and always make sure that I am comfortable and my peers whose never-ending support and encouragement makes me feel at home. School has definitely provided me with a great platform to explore my strengths, develop them further, understand my weaknesses and work on them. 

My school has also provided several extracurricular choices for me and every student gets the opportunity to understand their areas of excellence. Apart from this, I have learnt many important life lessons that I will be carrying throughout and what it takes to be a leader from my school. My school is my happy place for setting mental and physical health of all students as their priority and to provide us with a safe environment for competing and succeeding.

  Journal Entry of Haya Harris  During these unprecedented times, being able to go back to school and interact with your peers and teachers is definitely a glimmer of hope for the youth. As I come back to campus after being online for the past 1.5 years, I observed a lot of changes made around me. Vending machines replaced water dispensers, social distance signs were stuck everywhere, and lastly, the smiles of the students and teachers expressing their joy of being onsite were replaced by masks. As a senior student, I’m fortunate enough to be able to have my last year of school on campus and be able to encounter everything my seniors experienced. If everything goes well, we will have our senior trip, farewell and a proper graduation which I’m really looking forward to. I think the most important lesson to take from this pandemic is regardless of the severity of the obstacles we are facing, we must take it up as a challenge and adapt better in order to survive and make the ...

My School is My Happy Place

  Returning to my school after over a year and a half, I was filled with a flurry of mixed emotions; on one hand nervous about the adjustment and finding my way around again, on the other hand eager and relieved to go back to the sense of fun and normalcy, one thing we've all certainly missed. The novelty of the situation made me feel a certain sense of wonder and interest in all the little things I'd forgotten about being in school, the moments I'll look back on with nostalgia one day. For one thing, the constant sounds and activity- after so long spent sitting shut in a room with only a laptop, hearing the sudden cries of laughter and greetings in the corridors and the general clamour of a classroom were almost comforting in a way and being able to actually move around to different rooms between classes was a welcome break. There's just something about the unique atmosphere a school has, which envelopes you the minute you enter the bustling halls. It's the camarad...

Undoubtedly, school is a very happy place. Many of my best memories are associated with school. It is like our second home where we spend a considerable amount of time during the formative years of our life.   Some of the factors which contribute in making school a happy place are: 1. Positive environment  Among various parameters used for measuring the Happiness Index, psychological well- being of people is considered a prime factor. A positive environment contributes extensively to psychological well-being.  2. Time management Assessing the use and management of time is a key concern in assessment of HI. Regular workshops on helping children make their own work plans, take ownership of their learning, analyze their results and setting time frames can help children better manage their time. 3. Fostering unity in diversity Cultural diversity and resilience is a positive index of a happy community of people. Given that India has a strong cultural diversity, it becomes...
