Nostalgic experiences of people who studied at
Kendriya Vidyalayas---
There are almost 1,100 Kendriya Vidyalayas
spread across India. But, irrespective of the
Vidyalaya you went to, you have had some very
similar experiences across them. It is like
standardisation of education, and that too a
quality one!
Here is a list of 13 unique experiences, that only
an ex-student of KV would relate to –
1. Parroting out the morning prayer, without
understanding one bit of what was being recited.
Maybe the words “Daya kar daan vidya ka, hamein
paramatma dena” have now become so much
more beautiful and meaningful..
And sanskrit me to bus muh hilaate the ... Most
of the students dont remember that..😃
2. Believing for most part of the school years that
SUPW meant Some Useful Periods Wasted
Or maybe in some cases, this indeed was true
Unless the proactive students were able to do
Point no. 3 in case of SUPW periods as well!😃
3. Pleading with teachers and converting all
Arrangement periods into a Games periods..
Sabse pehle yahi check karte the ki aaj kaun kaun
sa teacher absent h and kiska arrangement laga
h..😃
4. Coming up with various reasons to the class
monitor for skipping the morning assembly
After all, the accomplishment of bunking the 30
minutes morning assembly under the sun, to relax
under the fan inside the classroom, gave such a
big high!
And Sabse jyada faayda to is cheez ka batch
holders uthate the..😃
5. After reaching class IX, making sure your
morning pledge was “conditional”. Ahem….!
" ... All Indians are my brothers and sisters
except..... and ...... ....."
Hum me se kuch to ise skip hi kar dete the..😃
6. Before the Gryffindors and Slytherins of
Hogwarts, the competition was between the
biggest STARs of town
Oh yes, their own Harry Potter story was right
there, and it was fun kicking the ass of the other
houses..
Dusri House se aage nikalne me koi kasar nhi
chodte the..
7. Forgetting to wear the white canvas shoes on
Wednesdays and getting punishment from the
“PT” Sir
And how many times did you rub white chalk on
the dirty shoes to make them ‘whiter’!?
8. Becoming your teachers best pal when the
“inspection” was on, giving out all the ‘right’
answers
And of course, ensuring the classwork notebook
was all complete, corrected and signed !
9. Coming up with new variants of Yog asanas
during the Yoga Period...
10. Distributing toffees on birthdays and treating
close friends with bread-pakoras at the canteen
Or samosas!?
11. Bursting fire-crackers in the boys toilets during
Diwali time without getting caught
Its coming up ahead get ready to fire some in
your KV..
12. Celebrating the last working day of every
month almost as a Holiday...
13. Fighting it out for your Vidyalaya in various
inter-KV competitions and treating the trophy no
less than Olympic Gold..
The thing is, if you had studied at any Kendriya
Vidyalaya, you now realise how important those
years at school were in making you reach where
you are today. It is a no brainer, that with such
low fees, amazing infrastructure, dedicated
teachers and of course, diligent students, KVs
offer the biggest Return on Investment in the
education sector ! And above all u have got best
buddies from all over India..
