TIME 
Student life is very important for each individual because this is the time when he/she lays a foundation for their future, but the surprise is that, most students do not value time and do not understand that time once passed will not come back. While teaching the time chapter, I asked my students what is time?, then one of them answered that the time is in your hand (watch), and then other said that has passed, that was the time.
Everyone gave different answers because they did not know much about time. They also did not know about the importance of time, they only knew that it is a name of chapter which is in our book. But after teaching them about time and  its importance in everyone's life and how we convert seconds into minute, minutes into hour, hours into day, days into weeks and month, months into year, years into decade and decades into century they understood the meaning of time.
Time has no religion, you can not buy or sell it, it is not less for anyone and it is also not more  for someone, It is equal for everyone. It does not stop for anybody.
Time cannot move faster or slower for anyone. It is like a cycle that keeps on running continuously. Those who use time at the right moment are more successful in life than others.
Time is precious. Therefore Kabir Das has also said 
Kaal Kare So Aaj Kar, Aaj Kare So Ub 
Pal Mein Pralaya Hoyegi, Bahuri Karoge Kab.
i.e.Don't leave your work for tomorrow, do it today. If you lose the moment, it will be difficult to finish your work.- Suresh Negi/ Educator

I read a story  in which there was  a strong bonding between the grandmother and her granddaughter. The granddaughter always asked questions and the grandmother answered all the questions. One day the granddaughter found  a trunk. She asked the grandmother that what is this? Then the grandmother said that I will show you,as she  opened the trunk the granddaughter saw a beautiful necklace.The granddaughter asked, 'Whose necklace is this? The grandmother replied that this necklace was for her Mami. The girl asked Why the necklace was not given to her mother. Her maternal grandfather replied that now your mother is an outsider He couldn't give the  necklace to her, her dadi would give a necklace to her mother. The talk was over and after spending her holidays the girl went to her home and suddenly one day her grandmother was injured and as the news went to her daughter she called her mother to her home because she wanted to take care of her and the grandmother was fine and she realized that daughter's are not  outsiders. They are the most important persons. She called her granddaughter to tell her that she would give the necklace to her mother not to anyone At last she accepted girls take more care than boys.The message that I got from this story is that girls are love and care for everyone more than boys and they should be equally treated as boys. No discrimination should be done.- Krisha Dave/ X/GH

समय
समय का मूल्य  स्वयं सिद्ध है।  समय का सदुपयोग करना अत्यावश्यक है।  जिसने समय की कीमत को पहचाना वह जीवन में विजय से साक्षात्कार करता है।  समय के संबंध उचित ही कहा गया है-
"वक्त सबको मिलता है जिंदगी बदलने के लिए,
पर जिंदगी नहीं मिलती वक्त बदलने के लिए।
समय का प्रयोग महत्वपूर्ण उद्देश्यों की पूर्ती के लिए करना चाहिए साथ ही हमारे प्रयास सकारात्मक होने चाहिए।  सकारात्मक प्रयास से तात्पर्य है कार्य की सफलता का प्रतिशत अधिक हो।  यदि असफलता हाथ लगे तो भी हमारे प्रयास उचित दिशा में हो।  हमारे प्रयास, चाहें सफल हो या असफल, कुछ कुछ सीख सिखाते रहते है।  यह सीखना भी समय का हिस्सा है, सीखते रहना ही जीवन है।  समय को कोई खरीद नहीं सकता या बेच नहीं सकता इसलिए इसे अनमोल कहा जाता है। यदि लापरवाही रख कर समय नष्ट करेँगे तो हम स्वयं ही नष्ट हो जाएँगे।  जीवन में किसी भी कार्य के निष्पादन के लिए सर्वप्रमुख समय है क्योकि अन्य वस्तुओं की आवश्यकता तो बाद में रहेगी प्रथम तो समय ही है।  समय को व्यर्थ गँवाना मूर्खता है।  अपने सफल भविष्य के लिए समय का पाबंद बनना ज़रूरी है।  वर्तमान में जिसने समय की कीमत जानी उसका भविष्य अच्छा नहीं होगा।  हिंदी के महान लेखक/ कवि जयशंकर प्रसाद ने भी लिखा है कि - वर्तमान के यथार्थ से सामना करो तभी भविष्य उज्ज्वल होगा।  नयी पीढ़ी समय के महत्व से अनजान है अपना समय मौज-शौक में अधिक व्यय करते है।  यदि समझाने जाओ तो ये सब उन्हें केवल भाषण लगता है।  किन्तु समय निकल जाने के बाद उन्हें अपनी भूल का ज्ञान होता है।  फिर तो पश्चाताप के सिवाय कोई अन्य मार्ग ही नहीं बचता।  हालांकि ये बात सभी पर लागु नहीं होती कई बच्चे अपने भविष्य को लेकर चिंतित रहते है।  समय पर कई लोगो ने बहुत कुछ कहा है और लिखा भी है।  एक गीत की पंक्ति में कहूँ तो- जाग मुसाफ़िर भोर भई अब रैन कहाँ जो सोवत है, जो सोवत हे सो खोवत है, जो जागत सो पावत है।  
अंत में सारांश कि समय का सम्मान करोगे तो सम्मान पाओगे।  अपना काम समय पर करें और जीवन में सफलता से साक्षात्कार करें।  रहीमदास जी ने भी अपने दोहे में समय को जीतने का आह्वान किया है-  
समय लाभ सम लाभ नहीं समय चूक सम चूक,
चतुरु चित रहिमन लगी  समय चूक  की  हूक।

SKILL
STUDENT THIS WEEK: Aryan Sirvi/ IX was selected as the Student this Week for scoring 100% in two subjects. He motivated the students by asking them to be work hard to achieve success and to have trust on themselves. He said that Skill represents the quality of a student. It is not possible that one student should have skill in all the areas but each and everyone has some or the other skill. Everyone should have trust on their skill .It is not necessary that by academics only you can get success you can also get success in skill area such as sports,   art ,music etc. but you should have trust on yourself. 
Academic Excellence is necessary for Success
"Success is assured when a person fears the pain of regret more than the pain of the process". Good morning Respected Judges, Principal ma'am, teachers and my dear friends. Today I Suryaveer Singh stand before you to speak against the motion "Academic excellence is necessary to get success". And I am strictly against the topic.
                 Success is not getting a grade or degree, if that was it then why aren't all the graduates from Harvard, Oxford or Cambridge University successful? The rule of success is hard work and destiny of course. If a student of engineering gets good grades but he is not practically effective in relationship buildings and solving crisis or proper planning, even though he may be successful in getting a job but it will not lead him far. On the way he is sure to fade out.
If you look into the directory of successful people who are doctors, engineers and IT professionals, then you will notice that many of them dream to be employed by people like Bill Gates or Richard Bronson, who are prosperous despite not having college degrees. They are not the only one, other successful people are Stevie Jobs co-founder of Apple, Richard Branson founder of Virgin Atlantic airways, Virgin Mobile and other virgin brands, Dave Thomas founder and CEO of fast food empire Wendeys. In last I'll say just where there's a will there's a way, there is always a chance for everyone to be successful in life as long as the are willing to take on the challenges.
Thank you and have a good day.- Suryaveer Singh/ XII/ RH

Should there be Reservations
 The system of reservation in India comprises a series of action measure, such as reserving access to seat in the various legislatures, to government jobs and to enrollment in higher educational institutions. Our constitution provided them with adequate opportunities for development. 
I feel that reservation should not be there because it is an opportunity in which the people are not doing their work honestly. Some people are enjoying this opportunity because they feel that they can easily get job. Many non-reserved people have been educated in difficult situation, their hard work should not be wasted,  they have right to get equal chance so why not given a chance to non- reserved people also. They should also get chance to show their ability. 
Reservation is  for backward classes or ST or SC people who is capable to do some work. It is good way in some job detail or educational so poor people can get equal opportunities and they can study well. Suppose there is a person who is good in studies, sports etc. If he or she will not get chance how can they show their ability or interest in their work.
My point of view is that reservation should be removed for SC, ST and backward classes. If there has to be reservations, then it should be based on economical conditions so they can get education. It should not be based on caste. By this they can get job opportunities.-   Mansi Choudhary/X/DH
