“These wonderful kids came to us as little buds waiting to bloom into pretty flowers. Let’s help them to spread their colour and fragrance. This will make our garden beautiful. Each one has their own potential and their own calling. They will, one day, surprise us and make us proud. There is nothing in the caterpillar that tells you that it is going to turn into a beautiful butterfly. Happy graduation day, dear children.”

-Ms. Veena Goel, Principal, Apeejay School, Pitampura
