The end of the first chapter of school practice.............

 It was the last day in the school. Reached the school with a weeping heart......I could not believe that it was the final day of teaching practice, because it was very enjoyable and refreshing days of BEd journey.

                    


We spend most of the day with our children, by collecting their feedbacks, enjoying with them, conducting small send off ceremony..... A busy day too............... My classes 8c and 9A ..............gave me a treat filled with their songs and short dances , taking selfies and group photos...... I distributed small gifts for students who scored high marks in the tests. They given back their love in the form of their words and as small gifts. My mind filled with their love. 

                    


As poets said, 

Love is valuable than anything in the world........

I felt that love and affection from my children, memorable moments in my life.

            


We took photos with Principal, and Head master and with our optional teachers. Their love and support was really commentable and unforgettable. 

             


 While signed in the attendance register, literally my mind was weeping .... undescribable feeling.... 

feeling of someone or something is going to miss and lost. I really experienced the children's unconditional love..... proud in the moment in choosing this noble profession. 

Remembering the past fallen days in the school........ Recognizing the changes happened to me from the first to the last day in the school...

A temporary closing of the first chapter of School practice......... waiting for more exciting days..................
