ANNUAL REPORT 2018

“Education is the passport to the future, for

tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it

today”

Guest of the day Hon. Justice Jacob Benjamin

Koshy, Very Rev.P.T.Thomas, President of the Mar

Thoma Educational Society, Our Manager,

Rev.Sam.K.Easow, Members of the Executive

Committee, Board of Directors, Members of the

Mar Thoma Educational Society, Respected Achens,

Distinguished Guests, Beloved Parents, Well-

wishers, Members of the Staff and My dear students.

Children have to be prepared and equipped to tackle

the challenges of living in the modern world.

Teaching should therefore not be focused solely on

learning the academic content but also mastering life

skills such as developing team spirit, creative and

critical thinking for lifelong learning. With the

2 | P a g e

above objective in mind, C B S E has attempted to

integrate and main stream Health and Physical

Education across the Secondary and Senior

secondary levels. Mainstreaming requires the

coming together of the Class Teacher, Physical

Education teacher and teachers of other disciplines.

The mandatory nature of this discipline needs all

students to participate in an innovative way through

the four strands Games/Sports, Health and Fitness,

SEWA and Health and Activity Card. It is

mandatory for the school to allot a period every day

in the time table for H P E and to upload a report of

work accomplished across the strands of grade X

and XII, for enabling students to appear for the

board exam.

Thanking God Almighty I present the 29th Annual

Report of Mar Thoma Public School for the

academic year 2018-19.

This Institution of Learning owned and managed by

the Mar Thoma Educational Society has a dedicated

band of 76 teaching staff of which 58 teach subjects.
