With the onset of NEP and our school’s mission of providing the
best exposure to our students to make them future ready, there is
a lot that we can look forward to from this team in the coming
monthly editions. I wish them all the best and trust them with the
task of moving our young minds towards the right direction.

Temple of learning.
School is a temple of learning. Orchids is synonym with a school
where children run to the school not because they ‘have to’ but be-
cause they ‘want to’.

At Orchids, our constant effort is to empower our students and to
create leaders of tomorrow.

We believe in teaching our students ‘how to think’ rather than
‘what to think ‘so that they can make informed choices.

We aim to create a stimulating and engaging atmosphere which will
enhance a child’s latent potential.
                                                                      03

Sky is the limit:
Excellent results a
reflection of dedication.

Orchids strongly believe
that all students are
talented and smart. For
the students to bloom they
need to be coached and
nurtured appropriately to
give their best.

The two months’ hostel facility for class 10 and 2nd PUC with
one-to-one coordination has resulted in great results.

2nd PUC
The institution discouraged tuitions and adopted best methods to
impart education and also to train them to face the board
examination. The fruits of the hard work by the school management,
faculty and the students are the 100 % results with all students
getting distinction and first class.

We are one among the few institutions which could achieve 100%
results.

This is the unique feature of Orchids PU College needless to
emphasize the efforts of the management and the faculty.

Students’ Corner.
How I Managed My Online Classes.
By Kusumavarshini. G

We all know that students had been suddenly exposed
to online teaching and learning due to the pandemic.
For a few days we became used to ‘All play and no
work’. Learning should never stop.

‘Every dark cloud has a silver lining’ and in this scenario
online classes came as a blessing. There is no doubt
that online classes proved to be useful, but the actual
question that rose was “How well do we manage these
online classes?” We students were new to this kind of
teaching and learning, moreover most of us lacked the
knowledge of how to manage the online classes. The
school has taught us to try different methods to tackle
a situation and not give up. I’m happy to tell you all that
we did really great. I managed the online classes
efficiently and enhanced my productivity. The first and
foremost thing I did was to prepare a timetable
containing the list of the online classes that I had for
the week and stick it in a place from where it was
directly visible to me. By this way I kept myself
reminded of the classes I had and prepared for the
same. Next thing to do was to treat the online classes
as real classes and make sure to follow the same
discipline as in a real class.
                                                              13
I also had to develop the habit of making a note of the
major assignments that were given to us and set a due
date for ourselves. We made sure we met the time
targets. We set up a dedicated learning environment
anddiscovered what kind of environment best suited.
We made sure, we had all the materials, books and
software while attending an online. Sometimes
Internet connectivity became a hindrance to learning
but the school sent recorded sessions which helped us
to cope up with the concepts. These were some
strategies we used to stay organized. Online classes
too provided an excellent platform to learn. Though
they came with unique challenges, we could manage
these online classes efficiently by adopting time
management, beingwell organized and studying
regularly.

To conclude I would love to say that neither now nor in
the future can virtual classes be replace ‘The Real
School and the Teachers’.

Parents’ corner:
Vishal. R was a student of The Orchids from LKG to 2nd PUC,
completed his board exam securing first class in the year 2019-20. His
father has mailed a letter of appreciation to the school.

Vishal’s father’s letter.

Dear Orchid
The day has come to bid adieu our bonding with Orchid. This may just
be a school/college to many, but for a few parents like us, it was our own
home. My son, was the cherry of my eyes when he was a toddler, and
Orchid, as well was just out of the crib then. We just joined him to
ensure he does not go too far from us, and it is okay to spend the first 2
KG years in a nearby school. The initial plan was to move him out to a
GOOD SCHOOL for 1st standard, but the way my family and Orchid
got connected, made the whole plan fade away, and it took very little
time for us to realize that he indeed was in GOOD school. It has been
nearly 14 years since then, and my son has grown more in the laps of
Orchid than of his mother.
Its not just a school for us. You have guided us in every step. If my son
has not fared well, it was our failure, and I do not have an iota of
disrespect or doubt about your efforts. Yes, he could have really fared
well had he not gone behind fame, but certain things happen beyond
our control. You have equally nurtured his talents, along with acting
responsibly, alerting us whenever he was moving South, and onus of his
failure, if any, was totally ours. Had he not joined the hostel, his PUC
results could have been still worse, and I thank you for making him
reach at least a decent figure to talk of.

                                                                             16
More than a ranking student which every parents crave for, you have
molded him as a good human, which itself is a great gift a parent can
deserve.
We carry loads and loads of good memories associated with you; there
are plenty to name. It is hard to name the teachers/mentors/guides in
my son's journey from LKG to PUC, to thank them individually by name
since the list is long, but would like to convey my heartfelt thanks to
everyone and everything you have done as a school, as teachers, and as
guides - we carry this respect, love, and pride of being associated with
you, and we heartily wish you good luck in your feature endeavors, and
we soon wish to see Orchid reach more heights. We request your
continued support and blessings on my son, if not directly, at least in
your prayers. May god be with you.

Thank you Orchid - we miss you very dearly, and we wish you all the
best..!
With Best Regards
S. Raghavendra Prasad (Vishal’s father).
