Q1. Why can’t we have a big canteen and more food variety? (Madhu ma’am)
- We can have a large canteen but the problem is that there is a space crunch in school.
Q2.Why are only specific students given all the opportunities? (Manjot ma’am)
- ‘You can lead the horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.’ Its true with everyone. Each student is pushed for the opportunities, but only some grab it and prove themselves. Moreover everyone has different calibre and depends upon who makes the right choice and comes forward to grab the opportunity.
Q3. A study has suggested that children with 1 PT period in a week are more obese than the children with 2-3 PT periods in a week. Can the school, please extend 1 more PT period? (Shilpa ma’am)
-Firstly PT periods are basically to channelize the students’ energy. If you see the records; there is a majority of full attendance on the days of PT. As we only have 8 periods in a day, having 2 periods as PT makes it difficult to concentrate on studies as all the time and energy is eaten up during PT periods. Yes, we can have two different PT periods in two different week days.
Q4. We have a curiosity to know if the flower you put on your hair is real and if the answer is yes, then why are you destroying nature, just because you want to look good? (Madhu ma’am)
- ‘Firstly I don’t like destroying nature’, all the flowers that I put are artificial and its very rare when I put real ones.
Q5. How has becoming a junior school head changed you as an individual, please don’t say you haven’t? (Jyoti ma’am)
- Every responsibility is a responsibility to open up, so it's yet another opportunity in my life which has helped me reach out to areas which preferably I never thought of. Also, this has filled me with confidence and I am filled with gratitude. Sometimes I felt that ‘oh wow! I had all the calibre in me’.

Q6. Out of sheer curiosity that what does the tattoo on your back mean? (Koshi ma’am)
- The tattoo on my back is the names of my children and grandchild. They cover my back that is they are always there for me like a soldier has a complete army behind it and no one can stab him from the back.

Q7. Why are students not allowed to choose a combination of subjects that later to a particular stream? (Koshi ma’am) E.g. - (I) Physics and History (ii) Biology and Accounts
- Its a matter of finance and time management, various children might have the same choice, excluding one from the group having a different choice. We only have 8 periods in a day and accommodation of various subjects for just one kid at a different schedule is very difficult.

Q8. Mehandi is a traditional thing, its not a tattoo. So why aren’t we allowed to put Mehandi? (Madhu ma’am)
- There are other traditions which the kids don’t follow. Mehandi looks bad once it starts to go off the skin , there might be an issue that villagers do have tattoos on their hands etc. So children will say that is a tradition and everyone should be allowed to have tattoos. There should be some decorum in the school and everything can’t be clubbed under tradition.
