LUCKNOW: With city schools open, students will be able to celebrate Teachers’ Day on the campus this time around.
Last year, virtual celebrations were held as the schools were shut in view of coronavirus pandemic.
Since Teachers’ Day is falling on Sunday, most schools have planned celebrations on Monday.
Ashlesha Tripathi, a Class 8 student of Gomtinagar branch of the City Montessori School, said: “We will decorate our classroom and write messages for our teachers on the board. We plan to surprise our teachers like we did during pre-Covid times.”
Ashutosh Shukla, a student of Class 6 at St Dominic Savio College, said, “Last year, we celebrated virtually, but this time, the entire class has contributed money for the cake. A special card will be put up on the bulletin board where all students will write something for teachers to make their day memorable.” “Last year was tough and we shifted to online classes. Our teachers always encouraged us to do better so I have made cards to thank them,” said Reyansh Verma, a student of Class 3 at CMS, Mahanagar.
Alishba, a student of Class 1 at Mount Carmel College. “I am a new admission in this school so this is my first Teachers’ Day here. We have prepared a skit which we practised at our homes. We will perform it in front of our teacher,” she said. “We have planned online as well as offline celebrations. We have scheduled a meeting online for an hour where all teachers will join,” said Shreshth Agarwal, a student of Class 11 at Cathedral Senior Secondary School.
