HYDERABAD: There can not be a child that does not look forward to entertaining the teachers on September 5, the Teachers’ Day.

However, the kids of Baratiya Vidya Bhavan’s Public School, Jubilee Hills had altogether a different experience on November 14 when their teachers shed their habitual sternness for a while and engaged the students with cultural programmes. They danced and enacted plays and skits while the students cheered with sheer delight. ‘Paramanandayya Sishyula Katha’ and ‘Mini Show’ were notable among the plays while a dance ballet depicting Lord Krishna and Radha in Brindavan stood as the highlight of the day. Gypsy dance by the teachers was another surprise. A fusion of classical and western music was presented by the students too. Principal C. Rama Devi urged the students to imbibe the values of discipline, sacrifice, patience and perseverance.
