GUIDANCE AND COUNSELLING
Mrs Radha Mahalakshmi, Principal of the Vidyalaya, conducted guidance and counselling session separately for classes X and XII on 15th of April 2014. After a formal introduction of students, an ice-breaking session was conducted.
The students were given an opportunity to talk about their career choices. The focus of the session then shifted to interest, attitude and aptitude. In the course of discussion, the Principal also touched on adolescence issues, behavioural disorders and character building. She reiterated that hard work, clubbed with self discipline and a realization of personal strengths and weaknesses would help in achieving success in life.
The principal patiently responded to the views of the students and clarified their apprehensions with real-life experience and anecdotes. She also threw light on time-management and stress management. The session concluded with a word of caution to beware of temptations and shortcuts which lure adolescents and force them to deviate from their academic pursuits.
