Dear NDN Family,
Just as a mother cherishes her child’s first steps and milestones, Atharv’s first experience of schooling will always remain close to my heart.
In March 2023, Atharv began his journey with NDN, and it was truly a beautiful start. He was welcomed with warmth, formed wonderful friendships, and found joy in his everyday experiences. Over time, he has grown both emotionally and academically, thriving in the nurturing and supportive environment you’ve created.
As he now moves forward to a new chapter in life, I want to take this moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to the incredible teachers and staff who have laid the foundation of his early learning journey.
A special thank you to his first teacher, Ms. Saranga, whose gentle and loving presence helped him feel safe and cared for from the very beginning. And a sincere appreciation to Ms. Shubra, who became a guiding light and a second mother to him. Her care, encouragement, and constant support have played a key role in shaping Atharv into the child he is today. I’ve seen remarkable growth in his emotional development, and I’m especially grateful for her support not just at school, but also in guiding us with activities and suggestions at home.
I would also like to extend my thanks to Mr. Tulsi and Mr. Jahabeer for always ensuring his safe journey to school, and to the classroom assistants Ms. Meneka for her patience and support.
Thank you, Ms. Shefali and the entire NDN team, for fostering such a positive, joyful environment during these precious early years. These memories and learnings will be cherished forever.
Warm regards,
Jayalakshmi Menon
