St. Milarepa Academy

Celebrating Labour’s Day with gratitude, respect, and community spirit.

Saint Milarepa Academy came together to honour the dignity of labour and express heartfelt appreciation to the hardworking hands and kind hearts who keep our school moving every day.

The celebration was filled with thoughtful speeches, beautiful songs, vibrant dances, and a special assembly by Class V. A heartfelt moment of the day was the presentation of tokens of appreciation to our support staff, recognising their dedication, sincerity, and invaluable contribution to the school community.

A special thank you to our students, teachers, support staff, and organisers for making the programme so meaningful. The joy grew even brighter with the announcement of our positive board examination results, filling the auditorium with pride, happiness, and hope.

Labour’s Day reminded us that every role matters, every effort counts, and every contribution helps build the Saint Milarepa Academy family.

With gratitude to all who serve, support, guide, and uplift our school.

Our young learners had a wonderful day filled with words, ideas, imagination, and creativity. The Spell Bee and Creative Writing Competition was conducted successfully on the school premises with enthusiastic participation from students of UKG to Class V.

Congratulations to all the award winners and newly invested leaders. May they continue to shine with discipline, humility, service, and dedication.

Our Class 1 students had a wonderful hands-on learning session as they practised tying their shoelaces and school ties.

This simple but important activity helps children build independence, confidence, coordination, patience, and fine motor skills. Learning to manage these everyday tasks on their own is a big step in growing responsible and self-reliant.

We are proud of our young learners for trying, practising, and improving with such focus and enthusiasm. Small skills like these create strong foundations for life.
