THE ADITYA BIRLA PUBLIC SCHOOL,

KHARIA KHANGAR, JODHPUR

Bi-Annual Report (April 2015 - Sept. 2015)

It really is a privilege to be the Head of such a wonderful school. I have really enjoyed

my first year and look forward to more to come. Thank you for your strong and

committed support; rest assured that I am listening carefully to what it is that you want

of our School, going forward, and will be working hard to match that with our own

aspirations. The parent interaction that we carried out in the term proved to be a

success and is something we will be repeating on a fairly regular basis. Our aim to

meet the needs of the pupils must always be at the centre of what we plan and do at

school. Having completed the first term it is clear that the staff – both teaching and

support – work very hard to provide an effective environment for academic and co-

curricular activities that is expertly balanced with regard to breadth and depth. They

go the extra mile to prepare and deliver lessons that challenge and engage the children

and inspire them to ever greater things. I am sure you would all want to join me in

congratulating each and every one of them for their passionate commitment to the

cause.

In conclusion, I‟ve had a fantastic one and half year at Kharia and, we are already

formulating plans to take the School ever onward and upward. I look forward to

travelling with you all on that journey.
