Dear Sunday School
students and
parents, January 2,
2012
Namaste!
Wishing you all a
wonderful New Year, welcoming 2012, as we say goodbye to 2011.
We started the year
with event presentations for Krishna Janamashtami followed by Ganesh
Chaturthi,
with all participating
in the pooja.
All classes with their
respective teachers have continued to strengthen the program with
a greater vigor. This
culminated in our initiating our first examination on December
4th. Our
students were initially apprehensive, then accepted the challenge and
were excited
as the day neared for
their knowledge to be tested. In fact our younger ones felt the exam
was over too quickly.
Now with this enthusiasm and with committed families we will
continue to move
forward with the teachings to provide a stronger foundation.
Our teachings are from
our Vedanta program based on Sanathan Dharm and the Education in
Human Values. With
both programs we will continue to teach our children.
