I don't know where I should start ! But this is a sad news for my school and myself. This year, we are losing some of our very good teachers to other schools due to transfers. Our beloved Science teacher will be going to Mumbai and this has made us all unhappy.
She was our Science teacher in the 8th standard and was also a mentor in various science projects and activities. What pains us is not so much that we will be losing a bright mind as we will be losing a great person from our school. Shraddha Madam was a strict disciplinarian, but was a very amiable character too! Our association with her has been for only about 3 years but in this short period (for teaching, it is short indeed !!) she has proved her brilliance.
So anyways, we are not attending school now as the results of Class X haven't yet come out (when will they ???) ! And we went to meet her and bid her goodbye. This is a poem I wrote and we also gave her some photo collages...small pieces of memory for hers to keep !

Au Revoir - Our Hawk Flies Away
During your KVIITKGP stint of three sessions,
You gave us so much that we can’t fully mention.
Being a teacher, a mentor, a guide and a friend –
You were one whose popularity limitlessly gained.
Being our science teacher in the eighth grade,
You enhanced our academics at a tremendous rate;
And being a mentor in science projects,
You have endowed us with the keys to success.
Beyond what you have given us in academics,
You taught us the most envied tricks –
Of becoming caring and good human beings,
For serving humanity & to give life a meaning.
Now that Mumbai is calling upon you,
We hope you will create wonders there too;
And do come back sometimes to our place –
To make lovely old memories, new and fresh!
With gloomy hearts we bid you Adieu;
But we also wish a cheerful life ahead of you.
Our deep reverence for you will forever thrive –
Cherishing you as a person who touched our lives!
