आयुष्याचा महत्वाचा आणि प्रथम टप्पा म्हणजे शैक्षणिक पर्वाची सुरुवात. कोरोनाच्या प्रादुर्भावामुळे आम्हा सर्व पालकांमध्ये शंका होती की या पर्वाची सुरुवातच ऑनलाईन पद्धतीने होणार तर शिक्षक नवीन मुलांना ऑनलाईन पद्धतीने हाताळण्यात व शिकवण्यात यशस्वी होतील का? आणि त्याला आपली मुले दाद देतील का? पण आपण त्यांच्या या महत्वपूर्ण टप्प्याचे महत्व जाणून त्यांना उत्तम प्रकारे शिक्षण देण्याचा प्रयत्न करीत आहात. यावर आम्ही समाधानी आहोत. आजवर कधीही शाळा न पाहिलेल्या माझ्या मुलीला अचानक शाळा आहे म्हणून मोबाईल समोर बसवावे लागले. पण तुम्ही ओळख करण्यापासून ते विविध उपक्रम घेऊन मुलांना खिळवून ठेवण्याचा व त्यांना सहभागी करून घ्यायचा खूप छान प्रकारे प्रयत्न करीत आहात. माझी मुलगी अस्मी अजूनही याप्रकारे सेशनला दाद देत नाही पण मला खात्री आहे की आपल्या कौशल्यामुळे व एकूण सर्व नियोजित task द्वारे लवकरच तीही पूर्ण लक्ष देऊन सहभागी होईल.

आपल्या शिकवण्याच्या पद्धतीबद्दल व उपक्रमाबद्दल निलीमा टिचर, दिप्ती टिचर व हुजूरपागा संस्था सर्वांचे खूप खूप आभार व लवकरच हा कठीण काळ संपून शाळा सुरळीत चालू होवो ही प्रार्थना.
