It gives me immense pleasure to be writing this email to you after about eight months of being here in London. We are happy and proud parents today and as I am writing to you my heart brims with confidence and happiness in saying that BUDDING MINDS has been the fantastic thing that has happened to us . We are proud Sonu being a part of your school while in India and for its fantastic orientation. Yesterday, Sarah , the head Teacher here at Little Rainbows’ Day Nursery and Shraeyas’s class teacher Sam have showered all praises on our little boy . Some of them are: ” SONU, as he is called by them (easy to pronounce than to say shraeyas ) is an amazing boy we have ever seen. His intellectual capacity is way ahead of others his age. ” He knows so much information, knows many places , has told us right from MGR (they did ask me who is MGR) to Michael Jackson and how Jesus was born to Mother Mary and how he got crucified on the Holy Cross”. “Sonu is holding conversations like a 11 year old and we do not expect children to know so much of information at this age” “Sonu’s vocabulary is far ahead of his age”.
I strongly believe that right foundation is very important for children from their infant years and he, who started schooling at a tender age of 2.5 years in Budding Minds has indeed been able to get the right foundation at the right time of his life. The story telling sessions that was held every monday helped him to emote, express and communicate very well. He is crystal clear in his communication, imaginative and sometimes the teacher has told me that they go bonkers with his wild imagination, He comes across as very confident who has a clear mind of his own, very warm and affable child. Budding Minds has been responsible for grooming his personality and I truly owe the school to the kind of a child that he has turned out today and for making us proud parents. Children are like clay and they can be moulded in any way I would say , they can be groomed to be something as useful as a pot or stay there in the mud without any use or value. The Wonderful Potters that you are transform these little bundles of joy into bigger bundles of joy as they grow up.
I also find BM to be more organised and professional in approach, can you believe end of three terms here, I have not had a single formal parent teacher meet ! YOU guys have a brilliant curriculum and orientation. Be it holding the book fairs or holding workshops , you guys are just FANTASTIC. You have added a new dimension to learning and added fun element in it instead of mundane repetitions. Teachers are like Ladders and while they stay in the same place, they help students climb the ladder of success. At this given opportunity, I would like to thank the then teacher (Ms Lavanya Nandakumar) , Mrs Latha and Mr and Mrs Ashok and all other members of faculty who have been directly and indirectly responsible in grooming my child into what he is today!
Hats off guys, we truly miss you, Keep continuing the good work I wish the BM team all success and from being primary, i wish them all the very best to grow up into a very big insititution. I am sure many parents will be with me on this point.
