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.

We Read, Learn and Grow Together - PYDS Learning Academy

Sunday School is more than just a reading session; it is a joyful space where students look forward to coming, exploring new stories, sharing ideas and discovering the joy of learning together.

Through reading, children develop imagination, improve their vocabulary, strengthen their communication skills and learn to look at the world from different perspectives. Every story opens a new window of thoughts, values and experiences.

What makes Sunday School special is the opportunity to learn together. Children listen, reflect, express their opinions, ask questions and connect the stories to their own lives. Each reading session becomes an experience of curiosity, confidence, friendship and meaningful learning.

Our aim is to create a space where children do not come because they have to read, but because they love to read, share and grow. 

When children read together, they learn together, inspire one another and grow together!
