A Mosaic of Ideas: Reading, Reflection and Responsibility - Lotus Petal Foundation

Sunday School reading is more than just reading a book—it is an opportunity to explore, imagine, share, and learn together. Each session brings new stories, interesting ideas, meaningful discussions, and joyful moments.

As students read together, they discover new words, express their thoughts, listen to different perspectives, and build the confidence to speak and share. The fun of reading, combined with the warmth of learning together, makes every Sunday session special.

Sunday School is where reading becomes an enjoyable journey of learning, friendship, imagination, and growth.

Highway to Swades - Akanksha Rai

By attending the reading sessions today, I really enjoyed the way a new reader, Himanshu Sir, explained the chapter so enthusiastically, bringing out the beautiful meaning of each sentence written by the author. His explanation of Kashmir, along with his personal stories about how people of different religions celebrate their festivals together, made me think deeply and reflect on the diversity that our country is blessed with.

Highway to Swades is a book that I received after attending the recent My Good School Retreat. I guess the purpose of gifting this book was to encourage students like us to read and reflect. Whenever I open this book, it reminds me of the wonderful friendships I made with the different people I met there.

Today, I also attended Neenu Ma’am’s reading session on Tata Stories for the first time, and it was truly amazing to learn about the great work done by the company for its employees by providing facilities such as gyms, schools, and other amenities. It shows how much the company cares about its workers.

My Good School Reading Session 9th November 2025 - Sunbeam School Balia

My reflection on today's Good School session:

Today's reading session was exciting and enjoyable. I learned new words and improved my reading and speaking skills. The first session was with Mr Jugjiv Sir, who read "The Door-To-Door Bookstore." His reading voice was lively and inspiring.

The second session was with Manisha Khanna Ma'am, who read "The Whistling Schoolboy Aur Anya Kahaniyan." Her stories were emotional and full of moral lessons about kindness and the realities of life. I also enjoyed listening to my classmates and learning from their reading styles.

Thank you...

Today's session was one of the most interesting and inspiring sessions I've had. My reflection was about two interesting books that we read.

In the first class, we had "Jugjiv Sir." We continued to read the story "The Door-To-Door Bookstore." This story illustrates how books can bring people together. I learned about new words and how to pronounce them.

The second session was with "Manisha Ma'am."

She read the story "The Whistling Schoolboy Aur Anya Kahaniyan." The story was fascinating and full of morals and values. I learned many new words and values in both sessions.
I realised the importance of reading in both sessions.

Thank you!!

Today's reading session was exciting and enjoyable. I learned new words and improved my reading and speaking skills. The story we read provided a valuable moral lesson and made me think deeply. Reading aloud helped me build confidence in front of others. I also enjoyed listening to my classmates and learning from their reading styles. The teacher explained everything clearly. Overall, the session was fun and educational.

Reflection – Sunday Session (9th November 2025) - From Sunbeam School Ballia Today's Sunday session was a truly enriching and joyful experience. We began with "The Door-to-Door Bookstore" read by Jugjiv Sir, followed by "Dekho, Sriman Oliver Aaye Hain" read by Manisha Ma'am. Both readings were engaging and full of meaning. Listening to them helped me connect deeply with the stories and appreciate the beauty of language and imagination. I enjoyed learning new words and exploring fresh ideas through these readings. It felt wonderful to spend my time productively while developing my love for books. I'm thankful to the whole team of my Good School Alliance for organising such inspiring sessions that make learning enjoyable and help me grow as a reader and thinker.
