The beginning of a new session is always an auspicious time for new hopes and renewed dreams. Campion School, Arera Colony Primary and Secondary Section, commenced its new Academic Session 2026-27 today. All the students returned to school after a short break with renewed enthusiasm. Excitement and enthusiasm seem to be high among the students. All of them are filled with great enthusiasm, eager to meet all their friends and might be struggling to capture their favourite bench. The management and staff welcomed tiny tots on the first day by conducting a welcome programme for them, which made them feel unique and important. The School campus bloomed once again, receiving new life with the echoes of the students. The programme commenced with the lamp lighting done by Principal Fr. Dr. Athnas Lakra S.J., Vice Principal Fr. Manoj Minj S.J., and girls students from VI classes. As they entered the school campus, the showers of rose petals by the teachers brought a smile to the innocent faces. The Prayer for students’ good health was done by Mrs. Sunita Minj. The Prayer song was sung by the teachers’ choir group. The Welcome song ‘Swagatam dil se Swagatam’ added a joyous essence to the programme. Motivational and inspiring thoughts were presented by the teacher. Principal Fr. Dr Athnas Lakra S.J., with their speeches, directed the students on how to sail smoothly throughout the year and work accordingly to achieve their goals. Principal Fr. in his message, told the students “to be positive, become good human beings and excel in your studies. Focus on studies holds prime importance, be attentive in class and concentrate on the lesson taught by the teacher. Create your study plan and think ahead. Prepare yourself for the future and have the courage to face difficulties and problems coming your way”. The students felt enthusiastic and looked forward to the new academic session 2026-27 with zeal and hope. The Master of the Ceremony was done by Secondary teacher Mrs. Ritika Arora.
