The entire staff and students of the school read for 10 minutes during the morning assembly after taking a beautiful oath delivered by Geetha Krishnan, our Headmistress. There was pin drop silence as we were lost in a world where books and only books held sway. There is a saying, "Read to Lead and thus Succeed”. We want the seed of knowledge to grow in every child. To excel and exceed we all must read.
