August 2021 Vol 2 Issue 1

Dear Parents and Students,

Welcome back to Classroom Chronicles! We resume this exci�ng pla�orm of crea�ve expression a�er a
brief hiatus. As always, we hope you are well and are con�nuing to maintain precau�onary measures. The
pandemic is far from over. The whole country went through a harrowing �me when the 2nd wave struck
us. We learnt from that experience to not let our guard down, keep a mask on in public spaces, avoid large
gatherings and get vaccinated at the earliest possible opportunity.

Our heart goes out to students who were looking forward to the physical re-opening of the school a�er
their summer break. These young minds have been stuck indoors for the last year and a half with li�le
room to spread their wings. We miss them as much as they miss their days in the school campus, being able
to play sports or indulge in ac�vi�es with their classmates. We look forward to the day we will be able to
open the gates and welcome them back.

Founder's Day celebra�ons
For the second year in a row, on the 21st of June, we celebrated Sherwood's Founders Day with a limited
gathering. We con�nued our annual tradi�on of conduc�ng Havan following which the Director Mr Y.K.
Gurwara and Mrs.Jyo� Gurwara blessed the teachers who had joined online. Post the celebra�ons,
teachers congregated for a day-long zoom session that focussed on sharing learnings, best prac�ces, and
teaching plans for the upcoming academic year. Online teaching con�nues to be challenging but we are
incredibly proud of our teachers who have constantly evolved their methodologies and our students who
have adapted beau�fully to this new normal.
