Respected dignitaries off the dais, parents, invitees, teachers, my dear students and
well wishers.
A very pleasant evening to one & all gathered here.
I deem it my honour & pleasure to place before you the report of the year 2022-23.
As of now we have 702 students, 33 on the teaching staff & 18 non-teaching staff.
We presented the 2021-22 batch of class 10 of All India Secondary School
Examination under CBSE Board and proud to announce that the results are a 100%
pass as usual.
The most notable part of the result is that out of 53 appeared 39 are distinctions,
11 first classes and 3 second classes one centum in math and one in social studies.
We congratulate all the students on their exemplary performance. You have made
us, your parents and our management proud.
Education is kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel quotes Socrates.
Dr. N.S.A.M English Medium High School imparts the best education and an
ideal learning environment using modern technical gadgets. Practical teaching
through activities, both individual & group, hands on experience in math,
experimentation in science & so on is being done regularly in teaching.
At this point of time, I am extremely thankful to our management for an awesome
renovation of our school building that has given us sufficient space for classrooms,
a cozy restroom with beds for kids, a board room, 3 separate labs physics,
chemistry, biology, a playroom for nursery & a much awaited school hall.
This has enabled us to have assemblies in different sections. High school, Middle
school, Primary and Nursery from Monday to Thursday, section wise & by
rotation. Assembly includes prayer, thought, national, international, local and
sports news, national song, anthem, talk on important days if any, birthday wishes,
acknowledgement of prize winners and the most interesting part of the assembly is
value based skit. The teacher ensures that entire class students are involved. This
will certainly develop confidence, and help them overcome stage fear besides
inculcating values which is the need of the hour today.
Morgan Freeman, the well known American Actor quoted “when I was a
teenager, I started loving school because what interested me most the
extracurricular activities “Music & theatre”.The school has introduced
extracurricular activities such as Classical dance, music, contemporary dance,
abacus, vedic math, Karate and taekwondo weekly once as per the choice of the
students and are trained by the qualified instructors.
Intra school competitions are re – shuffled and made interesting this year with
rangoli competition, recitation and memory test. Fancy dress, folk dance, debate,
elocution essay, wealth out of waste so on provides a platform to students to bring
out their innate talents.
The 4 house board decorations are done by students during various occasions such
as vanamahotsava, Teachers’ Day, Children’s Day, Deepavali & so on and you
would have already seen it in the school lobby.
Craft, drawing, sports, value education & general knowledge are a part of school
curriculum.
The school has introduced four clubs Science, quiz, Disaster Management and
women cell clubs wherein activities are being done and awareness created. Interact
club has also been introduced in the school.
Academics is equally balanced with extracurricular activities. Regular Tests,
exams keep students engaged and updated. Open house for parents after these
exams help in creating a good rapport between teachers and parents that benefit
children. Individual attention and free coaching after school hours is a speciality of
this school. Our students’ results and overall performance in the school, in all
classes is a testimony to it.
Sports again is perfectly balanced with academics and extracurricular activities.
Besides being a part of curriculum students are at a liberty to choose any sport of
their choice and are given free coaching after school hours by qualified coaches of
NET sports cell and free bus facility to drop them. I am sure we are all blessed to
be a part of Nitte, for such facilities are of a rare kind.
Our school hosted AICS Udupi District Athletic Meet “ Nitte Octathlon 2022” at
BC Alva Stadium on 6 th December, 2022. 21 schools of Udupi district, almost 500
students participated in this mega event.
Libraries store the energy that fuels the imagination and a school is known by the
library it maintains. Our library is stocked with14,000 books suited for all age
groups issued on a daily basis and we are open during vacations too.
Our ATAL Tinkering lab is a great hub of tinkering activities. Mr. Sudheer Shetty,
the instructor takes up classes for interested Science lovers on Saturday noon. We
have represented National Level in model presentation.
A new unit of scouts and guides has been introduced this academic year. Classes
will be taken up once a week.
Our school is a member of the Red Cross society which aims at promoting service
and solidarity, national and international friendship.
External exams like science Olympiad, spell bee, Vidyarthi Vigyan Manthan and
Inspire, enable students to think out of the box.
To give an exposure to journalism the students are encouraged to work in a team
for an in house newspaper ‘Nitte Times’.
To create empathy in students, Rose week is observed wherein the voluntary
donation received is handed over to old age homes or cancer patients or
orphanages by the members of the school perfectorial board. The school also has a
birthday fund which is purely voluntary to teach children the joy of giving and
sharing.
The school has a musical band troupe active, not only for our school occasions but
for the programs of Nitte institutions.
This school boasts of classroom connect with Hutchesons Grammar School of
Scotland. Probably we are the only school in Karnataka having this connect and
getting a sponsored trip to Scotland for a week annually. 2 students and a teacher
of our school get a sponsored trip to Scotland for week. They too visit us for
almost 10 days in a team of 10 to 12 students with 2 teachers. They also sponsor
the education of our 5 students. Sad to say it has come to a stand still for the past 2
years due to pandemic, but the good news is that we have been asked to resume our
connect again by the co-ordinator and Rector of Hutchesons Grammar school. Our
students connect with students of Scotland through penpals where they exchange
their views on many things. For eg: the books they read, the places they visit and
so on.
Teachers are the backbone of any institution. Your children are fortunate to have
such a dedicated band of teachers, who not only teach well but also take great care
of your children, their happiness and their well being. I acknowledge the services
of all the teaching and non teaching faculty for their commendable work.
Parents of Dhanya Shetty of class IV donated 50 kg boiled rice to our school mess.
We thank them for their generosity. We thank all parents for being a great support
to us at all times. It is this support that makes us go ahead with confidence. Thank
you dear parents. We pray you to extend the same support in the years to come.
We are fortunate to work for this school which has now become a benchmark in
education. The management has always been supportive and encouraging at all
times. They have reposed great confidence and trust in us. We thank the
management for their concern, support and live up to the trust they have reposed in
us through dedication and hard work.
I articulate my deep sense of gratitude to all the donors for their generous
contribution. We are ever beholden to them. They bring smiles on the faces of our
children.
On behalf of the entire gathering I express my heartfelt thanks to the chief guest
Dr. Sudheer Raj for gracing this occasion, giving away the prizes and having spent
your precious time amidst us.
I thank our Director of NET Campus, Mr. Yogeesh Hegde who is a great human-
being par excellence and ever ready to guide and support us.
I take this opportunity to acknowledge the services of the supporting staff, the
drivers, conductors the Resident engineer and his team, the electricians and the
security staff, who extend their support indirectly.
Children are the best gift of God. The world would be unimaginable without
children. I take this opportunity to thank all our loving children on this day. We
pray God to shower his choicest blessings on our entire Nitte families. May all of
us revel in his glory.
Congratulations!!! Students
