In regards to help my teachers, I will collect notebooks from the students to be checked by them and students may have complete notes with them. Similarly, Important announcements should be in the ears of every student and I will fulfill my this duty properly. Bulletin boards will be well decorated where important announcements are displayed in good and effective manner.

 I assure that I will perform my duties with utmost dedication.

FESTIVAL THAT I CELEBRATED RECENTLY

By: Rohan

India is the land of festivals. There are various festivals are being celebrated here. Recently I celebrated holi with my family, friends and neighbours on Wednesday at 10:00 a.m. at the end of winter. We started this festival one night before with Holika Dahan. 

Interestingly, The story behind celebrating this festival is that the son of hiranyakashyap, Prahalad was forced to worship his own father but he refused to do so. His father became very angry and decided to kill his own son by various means. One of the means of killing his son through his aunt holika, by placing both in fire as she was given a boon to remain unharmed from fire. Fortunately, prahlad was saved. However, Holika (his aunt) was burnt. From that day, people celebrate Holika Dahan to remain healthy and happy by burning their sins. And the next morning, they celebrate colourful holi to show their happiness.

On the first day, we all assembled in the evening. we light a bonfire. ladies made sweet chapattis over it. Everone pray for their goodness. We went to our homes and slept.  

On the next morning, All ladies of my neighborhood went to temple. We all assemble in the street of our neighborhood with colours, water buckets, water guns and water balloons. People started dancing and filling colours on each other. Children threw balloons on everyone and outsiders. Some teenagers threw balloons, water and colours from the roof on them. Outsiders got confused on where the balloons, water and colours come from. After sometime we all had breakfast at our houses and come back.    

In reality, this festival should be celebrated with natural colours. Alternatively, We can use tumeric, flour, flowers as substitutes of colours to play holi.

Everyone felt very happy. We enjoyed very much. This holi become memorial for all of us.

ROAD SAFETY FOR PEDESTRIANS

Respected Principal, My worthy teachers and Dear friends. Today I am going to share my views on 'Road Safety For Pedestrians'.

Pedestrian is the most important part of traffic & are at a greater risk. Road accidents are increasing in today's world at a faster rate. The biggest problem is at crosswalks pedestrians are not be really safe. Pedestrians are not just walkers,  travel on foot they are people doing all kinds of activities, for example Bikers, Joggers, Roller bladers/roller skaters, Skateboarders, Walkers etc are the most vulnerable (able to be easily hurt, influenced or attacked) of those who use roads.

For this reason, they should be very well protected. In order to remain safe, pedestrians should inherit the habit of using road infrastructure properly.  Subways, Zebra Crossings, foot over bridges should be used to cross the road. Short cuts and easy options of crossing roads are dangerous and should not be preferred. One should walk with care and with all sense and look around on coming traffic. We must avoid crossing road where drivers may not be able to see you. In addition, we should wait for suitable gap in the traffic flow before crossing the road. & never jump over the divider railings, you may lose temper due to over traffic.

 Children are more sensitive to the dangers of road. Moreover,  It is not only the drivers of the vehicles who cause accidents but carelessness of children and lack of awareness which add up the cause of accidents on road. Always hold hands of children while crossing the road. Teach your child to walk on footpath, encourage them to use subways, zebra crossing etc. Teach them to look at your right, left and right again and make sure that  no vehicle is coming and then walk and cross the road. If you will do the right thing on road, your child will follow you and will remain safe in traffic. 

  Furthermore, people should avoid using roads for morning walks and jogging. They must take extra care if they are crossing the road on or near a curve. Pedestrians should not use parking areas to cross the road. And don't think that crossing road by the shortest and  direct route reduces your time on road.
  

To sum it up, everyone must follow the road rules.  

Thank you
