Govt schools to celebrate ‘Welcome Week'
Patna: The education department has asked all govt schools in Bihar, from classes I to VIII, to celebrate 'Welcome Week' from June 23 to June 27. Director of primary education, Sahila, issued a letter on Saturday to all district education officers and district programme officers in this regard. The initiative has been taken to smoothly re-engage children in the teaching-learning process and improve attendance following a 20-day summer holiday. Over the five-day period, schools will organise three activities for students each day. The day will begin with inspiring songs played through loudspeakers an hour before the school day starts, followed by a warm welcome by teachers at the school gates. During the morning assembly, headteachers will conduct student-focused activities, including a welcome speech, inspirational stories, the introduction of a great personality's life, poetry recitation and discussions designed to foster motivation and engagement. Homework completed by students over the summer break will also be assessed during Welcome Week. Those who perform exceptionally well will be honoured with a badge to instil pride and strengthen their connection with the school, thereby encouraging regular attendance. Each day's first teaching period will revolve around a specific theme. On the first day, under the theme 'Summer Vacation Express', students will share their holiday experiences with teachers. On the second day, "Homework Express" will focus on activities related to evaluating and discussing summer homework. The third day's theme, "Mathematics Express", will involve mathematical activities. On the fourth day, students will take part in "Reading Express", reading one Hindi chapter of their choice. The final day will be celebrated as "Welcome Week Express," during which students who excelled in the homework assessment will be honoured with badges in the presence of their parents. The department expects that this structured and engaging initiative will help students transition back into academic life with enthusiasm and promote stronger school attendance in the weeks ahead.
