NAGROTA FEBRUARY 22(KNS):Describing pre-schooling crucial for nurturing young minds, Senior BJP leader Devender Singh Rana today said that sensitivity, skill and patience are prerequisites for teachers to meet the challenge of shaping the destiny of children.
Inaugurating a play way play-way school started by young entrepreneurs Mrs Shivani Sharma and Vishal Sharma at Nagrota, Devender Rana said care and compassion towards children is guiding philosophy for institutions taking up preschool activity.
Mr Rana said the concept of pre-schooling has gained momentum across the country in recent years and exposure to babies on wider canvass at the very onset of their life places them in good stead in the initial years of schooling. Apart from confidence, they tend to be sociable from very beginning, he said and appreciated the efforts of the private sector in meeting this challenging responsibility.
Mr Devender Rana congratulated the management for the initiative and reminded them of the great responsibility they are undertaking in grooming young babies. The idea of catching young minds, as early as the first one and half years, is not an easy task, as it requires a lot of patience and spirit of sacrifice, he felt.
Mr Rana dwelt on baby instincts in detail and said the process of learning starts as soon as a child takes the birth. “This is a universal truth that mother is the first and the best teacher of a child”, he said, adding that the pre-schooling mechanism is like sharing the responsibility of mothers. He cautioned against exposing children to negativity and called for close synergy between teachers and parents to ensure that they tread their journey on the right path.
